Cold weather brings the risk of frostbite, and sometimes the ways we try to stay warm can lead to burns or even house fires. As temperatures drop below freezing, it’s important to limit time outdoors, use space heaters safely, and never use ovens or grills to heat your home.

Wearing warm layers and making sure smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are working can also help keep you and your family safe. Take a look at these winter safety tips to stay warm and well this season.

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

His words continue to challenge and inspire us to look beyond ourselves and care for one another, especially those who are most vulnerable.

The fight against breast cancer is personal for many, including Indianapolis Colts Wide Receiver Alec Pierce.

He shares his story about how his mother's diagnosis impacted him and why he uses his platform to advocate for women's health. As Alec says, "The greatest way to advocate... is just being able to use my platform."

We're proud to partner with Alec Pierce and the Colts to share this message and encourage women to get their mammogram!
