Emergency Bottled Water

The weeks following a natural disaster are just as dangerous as the disaster itself. This is when the risks of dehydration or drinking contaminated water are highest. Your gift will provide emergency bottled water for drinking, cooking and hygiene use — so families can avoid waterborne illness as they recover.

You can choose to provide enough bottled water for one family, two families or even more. Your gift will meet one of the most pressing needs for children and families following a disaster: safe water.
