Abstract: A system and method enabling a mobile device user in an emergency to alert multiple parties to secure assistance. Using an enabled mobile communication device, a user is able to select a pre-configured emergency alert by actuating a button or icon presented on the mobile communication device. Depending on the pre-configuration, upon actuation of the alert an email is sent to a designated recipient, a phone call is placed to a designated recipient, a pre-recorded voice mail is played, and/or a text message is sent to a designated recipient. Once the emergency has passed, the user can cancel the alert which notifies the recipients of the alert messages that everything is back to normal.
