QUAKE KITS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM OVERVIEW

We believe that everyone deserves peace of mind. With over 15 years in the preparedness industry, we launched Quake Kits to empower consumers to find comfort and safety without hassle. Our kits are designed not only to provide full survival coverage, but to do so in a manner that is simple and cost effective. Our mission is to provide anyone, anywhere with the ability to take superior care of themselves and their loved ones in the event of an emergency. We are not simply a brand; we are security when you need it most.

We are excited to announce the launch of our annual Quake Kits Scholarship Contest. The winner will receive a $1,000 scholarship. Quake Kits is committed to supporting students in their educational pursuits and helping to develop the next generation of believers.
