In 2012, DZMM launched "Red Alert" ("Response in Emergencies and Disasters") for regular citizens to prepare in times of natural calamities. The radio program temporarily went off the air in 2013, but returned in 2014 after the onslaught of Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan). Because of this, the program became popular for its slogan "Ligtas ang May Alam", and held various contests like "Alert U" and held the "Red Alert Emergency Expo". "Red Alert" also became a TV program as a segment in "Pinoy True Stories" every Wednesday (formerly airs on Friday). The radio program later won different awards from the Philippine Quill Awards and the Hildegarde Awards respectively.
