After surviving a winter of record-breaking snowfall, subzero temperatures, ice storms, and numerous heat and power outages, Massachusetts residents are being called to take action and prepare for the potential damaging effects of future storms well before they hit.

On Friday, July 24, join The Allstate Foundation, Points of Light and Boston Cares to learn how to protect your family should disaster strike.

Attendees at the Revere Beach Sand Sculpting Festival are invited to stop by the disaster preparedness booth to assemble a free disaster kit with items proven to help keep them safe.

The event at the Revere festival is part of a 14-city, nation-wide disaster preparedness tour and education campaign.

Research shows 85 percent of Americans are un-prepared for disaster and nearly half lack emergency supplies for use in the event of a disaster.

Poor disaster preparation leads to a needless loss of property and lives.

Together with The Allstate Foundation, Points of Light, the world’s largest organization dedicated to volunteer service, is raising public awareness about the importance of disaster preparedness and is providing materials to help keep residents safe at home.

Be educated and prepared before the next storm hits.

Find the disaster preparedness booth between Beach Street and Chestnut Ave.

in Revere on July 24 to learn more about emergency preparedness and assemble a free disaster prep kit with items such as a hand-crank flashlight, whistle, emergency blanket, first aid kit, and more.

Volunteers from Allstate and Boston Cares will be onsite to answer questions and teach residents about staying safe in the event of a disaster.

The disaster preparedness booth will be open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Revere Beach during the annual Beach Sand Sculpting Festival.

The event is free and open to people of all ages.
