Marcella's Community SafeHouse Our mission is to prevent a fire disaster before it happens and save a child's life as a result of it by teaching fire prevention and housedhold safety. In the event a child is faced with a fire disaster it is our desire to bring hope to a child's life by donating a backpack, school supplies, pajamas and a comfort toy in an effort to replace lost items.
What We Do
We are a 501( C )(3) organization who through the use of an interactive house model we teach children age 4 and up including adults about the dangers of fires and other common household dangers such as chemicals and guns. We demonstrate proper safety techniques and responses to various situations
The Facts Of Life
Each year in the united States, almost a million children are accidentally poisoned, and almost 100 children die.
Another 700 children die from fires and fire related injuries
700 suffocate or choke to death
Where do these traumatic events occur? In the "home".
All of these statistics refelect injuries and deaths that occur in a child's own home. Such accidents and injuries are the leading cause of death of children ages 14 and under.
