🚨 **HELP US BRING PROJECT LIFESAVER TO SPENCER COUNTY!** 💙

Spencer County Emergency Management is working to bring **Project Lifesaver** to our community — and **we need your help to make it happen!**

Project Lifesaver is a public safety program designed to help quickly locate individuals who may wander due to **autism, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, Down syndrome, and other cognitive conditions**.

For families caring for a loved one who is at risk of wandering, every minute matters. Project Lifesaver provides specially trained first responders with technology that can help locate a missing participant and bring them home safely.

💙 **Our goal is to make this lifesaving program available right here in Spencer County.**

We are asking our community, local businesses, organizations, and community partners to help us raise the funding needed to purchase the equipment, training, and supplies necessary to launch the program.

**How can you help?**
• Donate or sponsor the program
• Encourage your business or organization to become a community partner
• Share this post and help us spread the word
• Help connect us with individuals or organizations interested in supporting this important project

🏠 **Keeping Spencer County safe means protecting our most vulnerable residents.**

Together, we can bring Project Lifesaver to Spencer County and provide families with another layer of safety, security, and peace of mind.

💙 **ONE COMMUNITY. ONE MISSION. BRING THEM HOME SAFELY.**

For information about donating, sponsoring, or partnering with this project, please contact **Spencer County Emergency Management**.
