$10,000 can cover the cost of conducting two Sound the Alarm events, which includes installing around 200 smoke alarms in homes, utilizing an ERV for the day, lunch for the volunteers at the event, and a fire safety package for the homes served. 

$5,000 can send 13 Emergency Response Vehicles (ERVs) and volunteer drivers to a disaster - delivering water and meals directly into the hands of people who need them.
