Keep Safe. Keep Going®
Welcome to the Energizer Keep Safe. Keep Going® Head Quarters. Here you will find everything you need to participate in the 2008 Change Your Clock Change Your Battery® campaign.
For 21 years, the International Association of Fire Chiefs ("IAFC") and Energizer have worked together with local fire departments to remind citizens to change the batteries in their smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors when they change their clocks back in the fall. Today, more than 6,000 local fire departments participate in the program.
The time change occurs this year on Sunday, November 2. We hope you will join us in the lifesaving campaign and reach out to your community with the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery message.
Participation is easy and free. Simply download the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery tool kit for tried-and-true suggestions for implementing the campaign in your local community and building awareness through the help of local media and business partners.
The tool kit contains great community outreach tools:
- Change Your Clock Change Your Battery coloring sheet handout for school visits
- Ideas for events such as door to door neighborhood canvasses
- Press release templates to send to your local media
- Program logos and artwork for newsletters and local businesses

About Keep Safe. Keep Going®
Change Your Clock Change Your Battery® is now part of the new year-long family preparedness program Keep Safe. Keep Going® that not only informs families about fire safety in the fall, it also encourages them to be prepared for natural disasters that typically occur during spring and summer months.
Stay tuned this spring when Energizer and the IAFC will launch a new Power Through It All™ campaign to educate people about the importance of being prepared for severe weather and natural disasters with emergency power kits so they can stay safe and connected. Through this program you can remind your community to use flashlights instead of candles when the electricity goes out.
