Smoke Detector Community Service 003Volunteers spent Saturday morning installing smoke detectors for senior citizens. Did you know that having a working smoke detector in your home cuts your risk of dying in a house fire by 50-percent? If you do not have a working smoke detector, are 55 years or older and own your own home, you qualify for a FREE smoke detector through the Burn Institute’s Senior Smoke Detector Program. For more information about this FREE program for seniors call (858) 541-2277 or visit the Burn Institute at www.burninstitute.org

Smoke Detector Community Service 005We believe Volunteers are critical partners of and participants in societies throughout the world. Whether actively giving their time through a formal or ad hoc organizations, or taking part in what is sometimes called “informal volunteering” where citizens voluntarily participate in community activities or provide personal care for family, friends, neighbors, or even strangers as part of accepted cultural norms of giving and reciprocity. By doing this we become an ACTIVE part of change in our communities and in turn reinforce change within ourselves.
