A critical part of the campaign is Sound the Alarm, a series of home fire safety and smoke alarm installation events across the country.

There were no injuries reported, but seven people were displaced by the blaze.

The American Red Cross does a lot of work locally, whether it's responding to fires, carrying out blood drives, or handing out free smoke alarms.

None of the occupants were injured, but two birds died in the flames.

Volunteers will be visiting homes in Fall River to provide fire safety education and install a smoke alarm at no cost.
