Anheuser-Busch will donate 1 million cans of clean drinking water in support of volunteer fire departments in 2019, beginning this spring in advance of wildfire season.
In partnership with Anheuser-Busch, the National Volunteer Fire Council has identified and selected the most vulnerable markets across the nation to receive the initial water donation. The program will also leverage a rapid-response approach to support volunteer departments nationwide actively fighting wildfires throughout the year.
“As the country faces more natural disasters, like wildfires, it’s important to have more programs in place to help our emergency responders,” said Adam Warrington, VP-Corporate Social Responsibility at Anheuser-Busch. “With the evolution of our emergency drinking water program, we’re able to offer tangible support and necessary resources to those who are protecting our communities when they need it most.”
