Keep Michigan Safe is a program FOX 17 is proud to be a part of— helping raise awareness of fire safety in West Michigan and around our state.
Today we celebrate 1 year of the our partnership with with E.S.C.A.P.E. Inc. to make sure families in West Michigan are prepared in case of a fire!
Firefighters have checked thousands of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in homes — finding nearly 85% of them were non-functioning or not installed at all.
Don't worry— each household was outfitted with detectors and knowledge to keep their families safe.
Cheers to a successful first year and thanks for spreading the word for us, West Michigan.
