Creating your Emergency Kit

Building an Emergency Kit might be easier than you think — most of the items are already in your home!

Take a few minutes to look around and gather essentials such as:

  • Your basic first aid kit
  • Flashlights (and extra batteries!)
  • Refillable water containers
  • Canned or non‑perishable food
  • An old backpack, tote, or small bin that can serve as a central spot for supplies

You don’t need to buy everything at once. Many of the items you need are already tucked away in drawers, closets, or the garage. It’s just about bringing them together in one place.

What are some items you already have at home that can be a part of your Emergency Kit?
