National Preparedness Month Begins TODAY

Multi-Pure's Emergency Preparedness Kit

Years ago I worked in Washington DC for a Congressman and spent a day at a congressional reception, consuming every kind of ice cream known to mankind to celebrate National Ice Cream Day. While I thought it was a silly holiday, I was too busy shoving Drumsticks and ice cream sandwiches into my mouth to complain or request that our legislative efforts be spent on more noble causes. Hey, it was free ice cream after all.

Today marks the beginning of the sixth annual National Preparedness Month. Now there's something I can really sink my teeth into! “National Preparedness Month is about building a culture of personal preparedness and shared responsibility across our country,” says Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.

“This month, we ask all Americans to visit www.Ready.gov to learn what they can do to help their families, businesses and communities stay safe during an emergency—whether it be hurricanes like Katrina, the fires we are fighting in California or pandemic influenza.”

“Every American is a critical member of our nation’s emergency response team,” said FEMA Administrator Fugate. “By taking a few simple steps now, each of us can make sure we are better prepared for the next emergency or disaster.”

Multi-Pure is doing its part! We offer a terrific Emergency Preparedness kit at an incredible price...only $99! The contents of the kit have a retail value of $175! You can find a lot of different kinds of preparedness kits online sold by many companies, but you won't find any other that includes the most effective water filter in the industry: Multi-Pure! Finding a source of clean water is the most important survival priority during a long-term disaster.
