Red Cross Offering Smoke Alarms

The Red Cross and its partners will install a limited number of free smoke alarms for those who cannot afford to purchase smoke alarms or for those who are physically unable to install a smoke alarm. The Red Cross installs a limited number of specialized bedside alarms for individuals who are deaf or hard-of-hearing.

Interested individuals can request an alarm online at getasmokealarm.org or call the American Red Cross Central and Southern Illinois Region at 844-319-6560 and press “9” for smoke alarm installation.
