An earthquake strikes, a fire breaks out, a storm ravages and you panic. You feel helpless. A natural disaster is always a nightmare that we never want to go through! Preparing yourself for one, mentally and otherwise, always helps. Keeping storm, fire and earthquake prevention kits ready gives us the confidence of being able to tide over these disasters better. Natural disasters kill an average of 90,000 people each year, globally and affect 160 million more. According to FEMA, almost 8% of the U.S. population which is around 25 million Americans were affected by natural disasters in 2017. This huge number bears testimony to the power of natural forces to endanger you and your family. Be ready!
Additionally, your important documents and some dollar bills are a must-include in the kit.
Over and above all, do not panic in the face of a disaster. Keeping a calm head above your shoulder can help you not only save yourself and your family, but also those around you who might need your assistance.
