Google news alerts served up this article today about a new Duracell program to distribute flashlights and batteries to fire departments.
Duracell’s “Hours of Power” program will make donations to fire departments in New York, Chicago, Knoxville Tenn., Springfield Mo. and Wichita Ks. These local fire department will then distribute Duracell flashlights and batteries to city residents at no cost.
Best of all, you can participate and help maximize the value of Duracell’s program. Every time you visit Duracell’s Hours of Power web site and click on the 100 Hours Button Duracell will increase the value of their contribution. To date, 49,600 “Hours of Power” have been donated. Their goal is 10 million hours which will convert to lots of flashlights, batteries and chargers donated to first responders and local citizens.
We live in a community that is regularly hard hit by weather-related power problems caused by hurricanes and ice storms. It would be great if theis program was so successful that Duracell extended it to some cities in North Carolina.
This program continues through Nov. 15.
