Can you believe today is the last day of the challenge? If you’ve been following along you have tested and prepared yourself 29 times so far this month! And if you did, was it difficult or easy?

I like to believe that preparedness can be simple and I hope this month has proven that to you.

Here are all the challenges so far, in case you missed them.

Today’s Challenge

Today, I have a gift for you. This is a template for an emergency preparedness binder that may help you organize some of the things we’ve written down and recorded. Print this off as many times as you’d like, use a 3 hole punch, and put it in a small binder to keep your information together in the event of an emergency.

This will have sensitive information in it, so guard it carefully.

This binder is part of my PDF guide, The Prepper’s Book of Lists, if you want more organizational tools.

Thank you for participating in the challenge.

Need to add “& charger” to Cell Phone entry.

This was fun, and useful to see where not only weak areas are, but to help prioritize preps and what shtf situations I will focus on going forward. A useful tool for new preppers too, as it cuts through the static you get from a lot of other websites.
This should be an annual event!????

Maybe we can do another challenge in the future… creative recycling, or incorporating some old-timey skills like sewing by hand, or a neighborhood scavenger hunt for survival resources.
Just a thought.

I love this list! One thing I might add is current eyeglasses prescription to the health information page so glasses can be replaced if broken during an emergency. 🙂

Better yet, Laura, try to have a backup pair of glasses, and dont necessarily get rid of your old ones…if SHTF, you arent going to get a new pair, an older pair might be better than nothing…I share this in good spirit, as I have finally realized I need to get bifocals, I am tired of having to switch between my distance glasses and dollar store readers…so another tip, stock up on the cheap readers while you can!

Brilliant. Since I just got my annual eye exam and new prescription this is very timely. Thanks
