There's always the possibility that a natural or human-caused disaster could strike us here in the Pacific Northwest.

Events like wildfire, earthquake or even a really bad winter storm can impact our electric and water systems and other public services we all rely on. In a severe emergency, some services could be disrupted for weeks or even months.

And if you are like many of us, the thought of preparing your home and family for a disaster or other emergency can be daunting: Where do you begin? What supplies should you start gathering? How much will it cost?

We want to help you help yourself.

That's why we created the EWEB Pledge to Prepare, a 12-month blueprint for emergency preparedness.

How it works

When you join the Pledge to Prepare, you'll receive a monthly email with step-by-step recommendations to help prepare yourself, your home and your family for an emergency. To help you stay motivated and engaged in building your supplies through the year, we will raffle off cool and useful emergency preparedness supplies each month. To be entered into the prize drawings, just send us a photo of your emergency preparation for the month.
