What's In My Kit? (featuring Jamie Lee Curtis)
Hi, I’m Jamie Lee Curtis. You already know the essential items for an emergency kit.
I’m going to customize one to make it a little more user friendly for your family specifically.
I think you should have a picture of your family in your kit.
My favorite thing to have in the kit is candy and games. Children have a lot of time so you want them to be occupied.
Another favorite: rechargeable flashlight.
Dental Floss!
Almonds or chips!
I live in earthquake country, where there will be a lot of broken glass, so I suggest solid shoes for every member of your family.

- Mission:
- The American Red Cross is where people mobilize to help their neighbors—across the street, across the country, and across the world—in emergencies. Each year, in communities large and small, victims of some 70,000 disasters turn to neighbors familiar and new—the more than half a million volunteers and 35,000 employees of the Red Cross.
Through over 700 locally supported chapters, more than 15 million people gain the skills they need to prepare for and respond to emergencies in their homes, communities and world.
Some four million people give blood—the gift of life—through the Red Cross, making it the largest supplier of blood and blood products in the United States. And the Red Cross helps thousands of U.S. service members separated from their families by military duty stay connected.
