why prepare?
Every day we hear about potential disasters, whether they be
natural or man made, that could seriously disrupt our lives for
hours, days or even weeks. Many of us have been saturated by the
media with this information to the point of tuning it out. But
still, there lies in most of us that nagging thought of, “What
if something happen and I wasn’t prepared?”
Emergency preparedness doesn’t mean there has to be a catastrophic
disaster or anarchy in the streets! There may be an event that
occurs hundreds or even thousands of miles from you, but the
ripple effect could seriously affect food and water supplies
for you and your family. What could be worse than being a sitting
duck with no plan when you only have to go a week to ten days
but the store shelves have been wiped clean?
Most of us don’t give a second thought to how the most
basic necessities for our every day lives get to us. We especially
don’t think about how vulnerable those systems are, usually
until it’s too late. The vulnerability of our ‘just-in-time’
supply chain systems which deliver all we need to us for our most
basic human needs are rarely talked about. Government officials
and disaster management experts are well aware of this and are
the first to say every household should have an emergency plan
in place and not to count on immediate assistance in the event
of a disaster. They
urge us in publication after publication to be prepared
and yet it is estimated that only about 30% of Americans have
done some sort of disaster preparedness, but most have not prepared
adequately. Why? Simply put, most people don’t prepare for
emergencies because they don’t know where to start and don’t
have the time to figure it all out.
Emergency Plan Man has taken
the guesswork and time out of making a solid plan for you and
your family and has all the supplies to outfit your plan.
All you need to do is to tell us how many adults and children
under 11 years old you want to prepare for and for how long. We’ll
figure out the rest. If you’re unclear how long you want
to prepare for, visit our Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ) page. Once you decide, we deliver your
supplies right to your doorstep in a few short days!
And here’s the best part. You really don’t have to
think about it again. If there are items in your package that
expire over time, we’ll send you a reminder when it is about
to expire and notify you that it’s time to re-order (just
those items expiring, not the entire package) and we’ll
send them right to you!
It just doesn’t get any easier
to have peace of mind.
