The
Safe America Foundation today said it has named Ecrypt Technologies Chief
Executive Officer Dr. Thomas A. Cellucci as chairman of its “BE Safe
America”National Fund Drive, an honor inclusive of his joining the foundation’s
board of directors to help lead programming designed to protect America from
future disasters.
“Tom
Cellucci is one of America’s most respected leaders and we are delighted to
have him chair the BE Safe America campaign,” Safe America Foundation CEO Len
Pagano stated in the news release. “With Tom’s leadership, we will grow a fund
that underwrites the kind of resiliency that helps Americans survive
disasters.”
Cellucci
was selected from among a pool of top leaders, recognized for his long service
to the nation under President Barack H. Obama and former President George W.
Bush, demonstrative of his “unique perspective and experience of teaming with
leaders, no matter what their specific perspective or affiliation.”
“Tom’s
attributes – of being a problem-solver and strategic thinker who knows no
stranger – will help us bridge the many perspectives in America,” stated
Pagano. “Our goal: to bring together the best-and-brightest, knowing our
unifying factor is our common American heritage.”
BE
Safe America is a six-year-old program designed to help America better handle
national emergencies, whether they are weather-related, active-shooter or
terrorist. The program each year conducts a 60-day “drill season” in which
American firms and communities, along with private citizen, are encouraged to
rehearse how they would respond during a crisis. The goal is to help Americans
realize that in an emergency, they have the capability to survive on their own.
BE
Safe America will launch its national program on September 11, partnering with
more than 24 organizations such as the U.S. Medical Reserve Corps, the U.S.
Chamber of Commerce, Operation HOPE, IAEM, NEMA, Boys and Girls Clubs of
America and the Hearing Loss Association of America. Financial support has come
from the UPS Foundation, Wal-Mart, Sprint and Federal Signal.
“Safe
America began with no government funding – and has done an incredible job,”
Cellucci observed. “My goal is to drive funding to enable Safe America to
realize its vision of educating Americans on how to survive a disaster and
build the mental toughness so communities don’t ‘fall apart’ after a
catastrophic event.”
