As we enter Week 4 of CO Awareness Month, we’re putting a spotlight on our “Together.”
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning affects anyone, anywhere, anytime. But this week, we’re emphasizing a truth just as powerful: when we stand together, we strengthen our ability to protect lives, build awareness, and create safer communities.

The True Meaning of Together
|
|
|
- Together = Community. By sharing safety tips with our friends, family, and neighbors, we multiply the impact.
- Together = Action. Testing alarms, inspecting appliances, and sharing resources aren’t just individual acts; they ripple outward.
- Together = Support. Survivors, first-responders, industry partners, and everyday citizens all play a role, and every story matters.

How You Can Help This Week
|
|
|
- Talk about CO. Use our toolkit’s ready-to-send email templates, social-media posts, and graphics.
- Test or replace your CO alarm(s). If yours is 10 years old (or manufacturer-advises replacement), now’s the moment.
- Share a safety tip with at least one person. A simple conversation can spark awareness that travels further than you know.
- Highlight our theme: Together. On social media, use the hashtag #COAwarenessMonth and talk about how we are all in this together.

Every year, more than 100,000 ER visits and roughly 1,200 deaths in the U.S. are linked to CO poisoning.
CO doesn’t discriminate. It affects children, the elderly, those with compromised health, pets, and more.
But when we unite, as supporters, nonprofits, homes, and workplaces, we strengthen prevention and save lives.
