Fire Prevention Week Starts October 9, 2020
Fire Prevention Week (FPW) is observed each year during the week of October 9th in commemoration of the Great Chicago Fire, which began on October 8, 1871, and caused devastating damage.
This year’s FPW campaign, “Serve Up Fire Safety in the Kitchen!” works to educate everyone about the simple but important actions they can take to keep themselves, and those around them, safe in the kitchen.
Did you know that cooking is the #1 cause of home fires and home fire injuries?
Unattended cooking is the leading cause of fires in the kitchen.
