Have you noticed that watching the news can be pretty scary? Especially lately. We don’t have to tell you how many disasters have happened, during the past couple of years. Earthquakes in Haiti, Chile and California. Tornadoes, wildfires and before that, Hurricane Katrina, Rita and the Tsunami. It seems like wherever you turn, there’s another catastrophe taking your attention. And since we create books that help people prepare for disasters, every time one strikes, we start hearing from new customers. They all say pretty much the same thing...
Sound familiar? And with disasters happening all over the world in places they don't usually happen, those are REALLY good questions to be asking. We started asking those same questions a few years ago. The first time was when a jumbo jet crashed right across the street from our house. Then after a few tornadoes, the Whittier earthquake and a nightmarish medical tragedy that resulted in the death of our grandmother/mother, we realized that all disasters and all emergencies all drive home the same crucial message.
The question was, how? While watching the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina – especially the horror of families not being able to locate loved ones, and unidentified victims, being treated without hospital personnel knowing their vital medical history – we realized that the same tools we created to improve safety for hospital patients all across America, could give families all over the world an innovative and effective new way to prepare for disasters. It's called "Ready In 10". So what is the Ready In 10 Kit? Let's begin with what it isn't. It isn't about stockpiling bottled water and storing emergency supplies. Anyone can get information on that. Anyone can also find wonderful information on physically preparing your home for disasters. In fact, we have some terrific guides and checklists, over to the right side of this web page. But think about the images on the news, in the days following Hurricane Katrina. People had escaped the horror of the hurricane ravaged zone, only to be moved into the horror of the Superdome and other emergency shelters, that were too small, or simply unprepared for the thousands of people streaming into them. Faced with the choice of staying in a shelter or returning to their homes, still under layers of water and mud, people just sat there, not knowing what to do or where to go. It's not much different than the day the 737 crashed into our neighborhood. All these years later, even with the innovations in technology and disaster preparedness, people experiencing a disaster today, are basically no better off than we were back then. People who have done all the right things, boarded up the windows, who had their emergency supplies, water, flashlights, and evacuated the moment they were told -- their lives were still brought to a screeching halt, with no sign of going back to anything resembling normal. People who days before, considered themselves middle or upper class, now looked like they’ve been raised in third world countries. And that's what makes the Ready In 10 Kit different. It’s designed to help families get the vital information and items they need, keepsakes they treasure and people they love, through nearly any disaster, with the information they need in tact, so they can get back to living their normal lives, as quickly and painlessly as possible. The difference between Surviving and Thriving, is Ready In 10.
