Now that summer is officially here, we need to remember keeping our children safe.
In the United States, a child goes missing every 40 seconds.
In Canada, 150 children will be reported missing today.
These are staggering numbers.
As all parents know, every second counts when it comes to finding the child and the initial response is crucial.
Florida resident Zephora Haddon is a mom expert and co-founder of Our Child Safe™ (known as the Amber Alert Registry™).
Our Child Safe™ and the Amber Alert Registry is recognized as the leading source for protecting children before a child goes missing, runs away or has an accident in the United States. It can save critical minutes to initiate an immediate response from local authorities.
This cutting edge, web tool is powered by parents and allows them to update their child’s profile at any time with no cost. It contains their child’s latest personal information (height, weight, photo, medical issues and more) which parents can give to law enforcement officials immediately when a situation arises. This allows them to print a flyer of the missing child or get the information to the media within minutes of notification– thereby saving critical seconds to initiate an appropriate response.
Zephora is working with schools, families, and PTA’s across the country to keep kids safe in an emergency or abduction. Her proactive system is a valuable tool for parents to have their child’s current vital information at law enforcement’s fingertips if an abduction or runaway occurs.
Subscribers to this registry pay $19.95 a year, with $4.95 for each additional child in the household. It’s a small price to pay for peace of mind knowing thorough preparation is the critical tool in successfully dealing with life’s unexpected circumstances.
Our Child Safe™ has partnered with hundreds of PTA’s, schools and non-profit organizations in the Florida region and are expanding throughout the United States area. Their fundraising efforts have raised residual funds and give back 25% to the schools. They are also endorsed by sheriffs and medical experts across the country.
