“Disasters teach us humanity, give us time to pause and reflect, and change our course.”

- CONI MEYERS

OUR VISION

Our hope is that everyone can have a positive impact on disasters in the world.

Coni Meyers spent 7 years as a FEMA inspector and trainer (over 50 disasters and 1000’s of inspectors trained). She saw a real need for information about preparedness, survival, recovery and sustainability.

​

CKM Preparedness Foundation was founded to create a network of resilient individuals that can empower their communities through events and education. We team with community leaders, other nonprofits, and businesses to provide education and services through churches, schools, civic organizations, and community groups.

​

Our first initiative is called KitsforKids. By providing go-bags that fit in a child’s backpack we are not only educating children on what to do but also their parents. The KitsforKids include a tracker, recording by parents to calm the child and tells them what they need to do. They also include a tourniquet, mylar blanket/poncho, whistle, light, emergency contacts and more. Our other kits are designed for pets, elderly and people with disabilities. During an emergency the go-bag can be added to the kid’s full emergency kit.

​

Every day it seems we are faced with some type of disaster or crisis. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the number of natural disasters is costing our communities billions of dollars each year and they are only increasing in frequency and intensity.

OUR GOAL

To educate as many people as possible on sustainability and what to do when faced with disasters in their community.

Our mission is fundamental yet bold: CKM Preparedness Foundation believes that each of us have a duty to ourselves, our families and communities we live in to raise awareness about sustainability and disaster preparedness.

We are guided by our five core principles to disaster recovery
