Protect your organisation or help build resilient communities.

Protecting Your Organisation

 Disasters can strike without warning, causing significant disruptions to your operations. Our solutions help you develop robust business continuity plans that ensure your organisation can maintain essential functions during a crisis.     With advanced technology and essential supplies, EPODs are designed to offer immediate assistance when it’s needed most.

Supporting Community Resilience

Your support can play a vital role in building important community resilience. By investing in emergency preparedness initiatives, you help create stronger, more self-sufficient communities. Support local projects, sponsor preparedness workshops, and fund the deployment of EPODs to enhance community readiness.

 CSR initiatives that focus on disaster preparedness not only benefit the community but also enhance your company’s reputation.  Demonstrate your commitment to social responsibility by supporting efforts that promote safety, resilience, and sustainability. Your contributions can make a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by disasters.

Large-scale businesses have the resources to support significant community initiatives. By partnering with FIRST72 & EPOD, you can facilitate critical funding for preparedness programs and resources. These investments help communities become better equipped to handle emergencies, reducing the long-term impact of disasters.

The FIRST72 hours are critical

Emergencies can happen anywhere, at anytime - often without warning.

In a major disaster, emergency services will be overwhelmed, and it might take several days before help arrives.  Communities need to be self-sufficient and prepared to survive on your own. This means having enough resources and supplies to last the first 72 hours and having a plan for shelter, food, water, and medical needs.
