Free smoke detectors offered to new parents

BANGOR — Project DAL, a group of area health agency professionals and fire officials, will donate free smoke detectors to families of infants born at Eastern Maine Medical Center, beginning with the new year.

Project DAL — Detectors Are Lifesavers — has plans to buy 2,500 smoke detectors in 1997 and distribute them to families of newborns, low-income families and to the elderly, all of whom are at the greatest risk of dying in fires.

For information about the program, call 942-6335.
