MySafe:LA is pleased to announce that Motorola has become a financial supporter of our QuakeSmart:LA program.

The Big One is coming. There's no doubt, a major earthquake will rattle southern California sometime in the coming 30 years - or 30 minutes. California has seen its share of significant earthquakes, but if the southern end of the San Andreas ruptures (and it's more than 200 years overdue to have a significant event), the greater Los Angeles area will experience a disaster of "Sendai" proportions.

For every Los Angeles resident, it is vital to have the facts in hand relative to understanding what to do, when to do it, and how to best protect your family and co-workers in the event of an emergency. You can get key information here in the MySafe:LA website, as well as from other key resources online.
