Submission: Submit an original essay of 500 words or less on the following issue:
“According to a recent national study, over half of all Americans do not have emergency supplies in their home, which would include a 3-day supply of nonperishable food and water. Unfortunately, they would not be prepared if an emergency or a natural disaster occurs. From our experience, most people do not think about putting together or buying an emergency kit until there is a major disaster reported in the news, and some aren’t driven to action even then.”
