The original Air Defenders program was developed in Wisconsin. Therefore, Wisconsin residents may order 1 copy of the kit for free (see on-line form below). The new and improved version of the Air Defenders kit was produced for the Great Lakes states (WI, MI, MN, IL, OH, IN, PA, NY) and Ontario, Canada. So residents of these areas may use the list below to contact their area representative to receive their free kit. Non-residents of these areas and residents who would like multiple copies, may order for a small fee. Keep reading to find out how you can receive your official Air Defenders Kit!
