Scorching heat, crushing physical effort, and heavy gear mean firefighters face an increased risk of dehydration and heat-related injuries. Replenishing lost fluids is mission-critical for firefighters in the field so they don’t get sick from the heat.
As part of our long-term partnership with the National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC), DripDrop launched our Firefighter Relief Donation Program for the 4th year running in June 2023, with a goal of distributing 500k servings to volunteer firefighters across the US. In addition, we will be providing 70k servings to Wildland Fire Departments who are at great risk of dehydration as they help to prevent and fight wildfires this summer.
