Fire Prevention Week
National Fire Prevention Week teaches kids and adults how to be responsible for their personal safety, and increases family awareness of potentially harmful situations.
To help bring fire safety into the classroom, the BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund co-hosts an annual Fire Prevention Week Contest. Students from Kindergarten to Grade 12 are invited to participate by creating a poster or video about fire prevention to be entered to win incredible prizes, such as an iPad or pizza party for their class.
The BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund partners with the following organizations to offer the Contest in an effort to reduce the number of fire and burn injuries among children:
-
