Happy New Year!
I wanted to start off
this new year with a very useful newsletter. I'm one of those gals who likes to be
prepared, so when I found the Preparedpak, I just couldn't
wait to buy them for my entire family AND share the information with YOU! My extended
family, of sorts!
Quick, where do
you keep a copy of your insurance policy, bank statements or favorite family
picture? Mine are in my Preparedpak--and yours should be too.
What goes into a
Preparedpak? Well, if you log on to www.preparedpak.com you can take a look
at a complete list showing all of the very helpful things they put in each of
their Preparedpaks. Here is what you can find in the Basic Home
Safety pak for only $39.95:
They've thought
of everything you would need for an emergency or disaster and it's stored in
a bright red backpack packaged either in a Home Safety pak, Family pak or Pet
pak; and all profits are being donated to Hope Village for Children in
Meridian, Mississippi, to care for children displaced from Hurricane
Katrina.
Included in the pak
you'll also find an Emergeny Contact List and a list of additional items to include
in your Preparedpak. The list includes such things as:
-
Family
photo
-
Pet photo
-
List
of medications/doctors
-
Important phone
#'s (family and friends)
-
Spare key to
house/car

We always hope there
will never be a need for such emergencies, but as Edna Mole (from the Incredibles Movie)
says, "Luck favors the prepared(pak), dear!"
Enjoy the
Week!
