On July 4th, Kerr County, Texas, was devastated by a catastrophic weather event as months’ worth of rainfall fell in just four hours. Communities from Houston to Dallas also faced record rainfall, overwhelming local emergency systems and placing immense strain on frontline responders. For evacuees with limited resources, and first responders working long hours in grueling conditions, maintaining hydration became a critical challenge.
To help meet this urgent need, The Salvation Army TX, Operation BBQ Relief, and Global Empowerment Mission mobilized quickly to provide emergency relief. As part of their disaster response efforts, these organizations distributed DripDrop electrolyte powder alongside much-needed necessities like clothing, food, and water, to shelters, response teams, and communities impacted by the floods.
