Happy 6th Annual International Read A Comic Book Naked Day!
I’m betting at least a few of you forgot what day it is. You were going to go home tonight and get hassled by your significant other for being a total dirtbag and forgetting to bring some comics home. That’s why we’re here, friend. [...]
Zombie Squad – Apocalypse Relief Through Disaster Preparedness
September 11th, 2007 — From The Feeds, events, websites
While many teams have formed for the purpose of fighting the undead, ZNN holds a special place in its heart for those selfless and fearless groups who actually take to the streets and make a difference. Zombie Squad is such a team, a rare collective of preparedness minded persons who have joined together to educate the public about the importance of self reliance and disaster planning so that in the event of an undead onslaught, or the more common but no less deadly earthquake or tornado, the average citizen will be better able to see to the protection of themselves and their loved ones.
In addition to spreading the ghoul stomping gospel, ZS members plan food drives and other charitable events such as team days on Habitat for Humanity projects. A percentage of the proceeds from the Zombie Squad webstore even goes to support charities like the American Red Cross, Feed my People and the American Cancer Society. In their own words:
"[Zombie Squad's] goal is to educate the public about the importance
of personal preparedness and self reliance, to increase its readiness
to respond to disasters such as Earthquakes, Floods, Terrorism or Zombie
Outbreaks. We want to make sure you are prepared for any crisis situation
that might come along in your daily life which may include having your
face eaten by the formerly deceased."

Support Zombie Squad by donating time and resources if you happen to be in the Missouri or New Jersey area and can attend an upcoming events. If you can not attend an event, you can still show your support by becoming a dues paying member of Zombie quad and perhaps even picking up some cool ZS merch in the ZS Webstore.
