United Way BC provides emergency preparedness guidebooks for wildfire threat
BURNABY — Wildfire is not an unfamiliar topic for British Columbians.
And for this year’s emergency preparedness week, which is between May 5-11 this year, United Way BC released two emergency preparedness guidebooks for seniors, families, and individuals.
While daunting as it sounds, the non-profit organization says it’s necessary for people in B.C. to plan for the wildfire season ahead.
“History has taught us that circumstances can change quickly and dramatically, and it is better to be proactive than reactive,” from news release by United Way BC on May 6, 2024.
