UNITED WE PREPARE
Resilience doesn’t start after a disaster – it starts now, with community, with care, and with a plan.

With support from Verizon, United Way can better prepare communities for future disasters.

UNITED WE PREPARE

A COMMUNITY PREPAREDNESS INITIATIVE

Brought to you by United Way and Verizon

Disasters can happen anytime, anywhere – whether natural or man-made. From fires and floods to power outages and severe storms, every emergency poses a risk to our safety, homes, and communities. That’s why United Way, with support from Verizon, is launching United We Prepare – a new initiative to help individuals and communities build resilience in the face of disasters.

PREPARATION IS THE FIRST STEP TOWARD SAFETY.

Through this initiative, United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey will be hosting local disaster preparedness trainings and workshops to help individuals and families:

emergency plans

Make emergency plans

go kits

Assemble go-kits

reliable sources

Stay informed through reliable sources

local risks

Understand local risks – specifically fire safety and prevention

FIRE SAFETY FOCUS

Fires are one of the most common hazards we face in the greater Philadelphia area. Learn how to reduce fire risks at home, create home fire escape plans, and prepare for emergencies with practical tips during our events.

Join us as we take steps towards a safer and more
resilient future for all.
