Participating stores may deliver free pizza to customers who have working smoke alarms
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Domino's Pizza Inc. (NYSE: DPZ), the largest pizza company in the world, and the National Fire Protection Association® (NFPA®) are joining forces to deliver important fire safety messages to homes across the country.
Domino's partners with NFPA for the 17th annual Fire Safety Week Program!
During Fire Prevention Week™ (Oct. 6-12), participating Domino's stores throughout the U.S. will highlight this year's campaign theme, "Smoke alarms: Make them work for you!™" with flyers on top of pizza boxes. The flyers will include important fire safety tips – such as providing necessary steps to ensure smoke alarms operate properly within homes.
Customers who order from participating Domino's stores throughout the U.S. during Fire Prevention Week may also be surprised when their delivery arrives accompanied by a fire engine. If the smoke alarms in the home are working, the pizza is free. If the smoke alarms are not working, the firefighters will replace the batteries or install fully functioning alarms.
"Every year, Domino's stores look forward to partnering with their local fire departments and NFPA to spread important fire safety messages in communities nationwide," said Jenny Fouracre, Domino's senior director of communications. "This is the 17th year that Domino's has brought the program to neighborhoods across the U.S., which speaks to the annual success of the program."
"Smoke alarms reduce the risk of dying in a home fire by more than half. This year's Fire Prevention Week campaign drives home just how important it is to install, test, and maintain smoke alarms to make sure they're working properly," said Lorraine Carli, vice president of Outreach and Advocacy at NFPA. "We're thrilled to team up with Domino's once again to help reach as many people as possible with these messages, which can truly make a life-saving difference in a home fire."
Fire Safety Tips from Domino's and NFPA
- INSTALL: Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area (like a hallway), and on each level (including the basement) of the home.
- TEST: Test smoke alarms at least once a month by pushing the test button.
- REPLACE: Replace all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old or stop responding when tested.
