Emergency Services Archives - One Call for All

American Red Cross

Every day home fires take seven lives in the United States. Home fires kill more people than all other natural disasters combined in the U.S. Your gift to One Call For All will help stop this loss of life because it will be used to support the Red Cross Home Fire Campaign. We’re going door-to-door to install free smoke alarms, replace dead batteries, and help families develop two-minute escape plans. Since launching the nationwide Home Fire Campaign in October 2014 we have: • Installed more than 1,500,000 smoke alarms in vulnerable communities. • Replaced more than 71,000 batteries. • Saved 520 lives. This year we plan to install 1,400 free smoke alarms in the Northwest Region. This is only possible with generous support from donors like you. Thank you for supporting One Call For All and the Red Cross Home Fire Campaign.

Proudly serving Bainbridge Island since 1942, the Bainbridge Island Volunteer Firefighters Association and its membership serve our community as volunteer firefighters and emergency medical technicians. Our mission is to safeguard lives, property and the environment through prevention, education & emergency response.

Bainbridge Prepares

Bainbridge Prepares supports our community through communication and awareness about emergency preparedness because when we’re all connected and informed, our island thrives.

A collaborative blend of individuals, organizations, and local government, Bainbridge Prepares is actively making our island more resilient. In the event of a large natural disaster like an earthquake our brave first responders will be overwhelmed and we’ll be on our own in our neighborhoods. That’s when community is vital—neighbors helping neighbors—with everyone taking care of each other.

Join your friends and neighbors to ensure our island is ready for anything; learn more at our website.

Coffee Oasis

The Coffee Oasis mission is to change the world for homeless youth in one community after another through evidence-based programs supported by sustainable coffee businesses.

We accomplish this through street and school outreach, drop-in centers, housing, case management, mentoring and job training.
