We would like to welcome our newest sponsor, Disaster Kits, LLC.
Our sponsors products are something every person should have. It is one of the first things recommend for people to get to be more prepared. Unfortunately…most people wait until its too late to get the items they need in case of a disaster. We all know we should have this stuff…we just keep procrastinating and never go get it. When you see the news and hear about hurricanes, wildfires, blackouts, terror attacks, floods, etc. you start to realize how important being prepared is. Our sponsors products also make great gifts for loved ones, friends, clients or employees.
From the founder:
I started this company because I truly care about this topic. I was a volunteer firefighter for over 6 years and spent time at Ground Zero. I was also in the security business for twelve years. I know how important basic preparedness is and how our products can help. I also truly believe that the more people are prepared…the easier it is on our rescue personnel to deal with the situation.
These kits make great, meaningful gifts for friends, family, clients, and employees. With the holidays just around the corner, many of you are looking for a gift for that special someone or something to send as a thank you gift! These kits will stand out more to those who receive them!
Disaster Kits, LLC will also donate a percentage of all sales to groups and organizations that respond to disasters and also help people recover afterwards. By buying from our sponsor…you are not only making yourself and your loved ones safer….but you are helping some wonderful groups.
