The Pillowcase Project: Emergency Preparedness Program for Children

Join me, along with Neela Mukherjee Lockel, CEO of American Red Cross NY, for The Pillowcase Project, which is a free virtual emergency preparedness education class that teaches children (ages 7-12) about emergency preparedness. 

The project emerged during Hurricane Katrina, when many people who evacuated  carried important items to shelters in their pillowcases. Aimed at educating children on specific disasters and empowering them to feel emotionally and physically prepared to deal with emergencies. Reinforces personal preparedness by engaging children in a discussion about emergencies, teaching coping skills, and practicing preparedness at school and home.

The virtual event will take place, Tuesday, October 20, 2020 at 3:00pm on my FaceBook page! See you then!
