The National Interagency Fire Center reported that in 2021 a crushing 2.5 million acres have already succumbed to large fires across 12 US states. For wildland firefighters carrying 50lbs of equipment while battling flames as hot as 1,472℉, dehydration is a critical safety concern.
After years of driving DripDrop from our California office to active wildfire sites, we began a long-term partnership with the National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) to distribute sticks to volunteer firefighters across the US. In 2021, we shipped over 200,000 sticks to crews in need of dehydration relief fast.
