Community-rooted. Professionally prepared.
Philly Be Safe is a Community Preparedness & Resilience organization connecting professional training, safety education, youth development, mentorship and community programming under one mission.
Preparedness that strengthens people and communities.
CPR and lifesaving training are an important part of the organization, but Philly Be Safe's work extends into broader preparedness, safety education, youth development and community programming.
Philadelphia is home and part of the organization's identity. Its services and partnerships, however, are not limited only to the city. Philly Be Safe is built to work with schools, organizations and communities as opportunities for meaningful expansion develop.
