A trusted lifeline during the LA wildfires.
The LA wildfires reflected a reality communities across the country are facing—emergencies are becoming more frequent, more complex, and harder to navigate without reliable information.
Because of supporters like you, Watch Duty has been able to meet that need, helping people stay informed, connected, and safer when seconds count. Our volunteer firefighters, dispatchers, and community reporters monitor emergencies around the clock to deliver verified, life-saving updates.
Your support helps keep Watch Duty free and ad-free, trains more volunteer reporters, and powers our expansion nationwide, so every community has access to trusted, real-time information when disaster strikes.
Expanding nationwide
The LA wildfires were a pivotal moment—and a reflection of the work Watch Duty does every day. Last year alone, communities relied on Watch Duty during more than 13,000 incidents, big and small, for clarity during emergencies.
Today, that work reaches the entire country. Watch Duty has expanded from 22 states to nationwide coverage, ensuring every U.S. community can access verified, real-time information when it matters most.
