America The Beautiful Foundation, a national nonprofit dedicated to renewing the beauty, strength, and promise of America, announced a grant to public safety technology provider Intterra to expand its Aware platform nationwide as AwareUS, delivering trusted, real-time emergency information, at no cost, to communities across all U.S. states and territories.
The grant, awarded through the Foundation’s SAFE (Safeguarding Communities, Forests & Ecosystems) program, will fund an authoritative national public safety information platform directly connected to state, local, tribal, territorial, and federal public safety agencies, ensuring that when disaster strikes, Americans hear directly from the agencies protecting them, not from rumor or speculation.
“America The Beautiful Foundation is focused on solutions that strengthen communities and help protect lives, landscapes, and public trust,” said Dr. Emily Weeks, Executive Director of America The Beautiful Foundation. “Every American deserves access to clear, timely, and authoritative public safety information. The public should not have to piece together life-safety information from rumors, social media, scanner traffic, or secondhand sources. The authoritative voice belongs with public safety agencies, and this platform is being built to ensure consistent and accurate information is provided to the public.”
The grant reflects the Foundation’s commitment to safeguarding the people and places that make America beautiful. Through its SAFE program, the Foundation is advancing wildfire prevention, AI-enabled early detection, predictive analytics, and emergency response systems, working hand-in-hand with frontline fire agencies and land managers across the country to protect American lives, communities, and natural landscapes.
