The Salvation Army considers extreme heat a natural disaster in Arizona, and its Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) has provided heat relief (indoor cooling, hydration and other heat relief items) for more than a decade, currently as part of the Heat Relief Regional Network.
This summer, DripDrop provided 150k servings to the Salvation Army Southwest division’s extreme heat relief efforts across many southwest communities including in Phoenix, Tempe, Tucson, Yuma and Las Vegas. In addition, the relationship is expanding into Texas where 60K servings have been donated to the Salvation Army's Emergency Disaster Services center in Arlington TX to be distributed as needed during their emergency response efforts throughout the summer.
