Summer brings outdoor adventures, water activities, and barbecues, but it also can bring danger to firefighters, who exert themselves in heavy gear and high temperatures.
To help prevent firefighter dehydration and heat-related injuries, especially during long incidents and wildfire response, DripDrop Hydration, PBC, has partnered with the National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) for the fifth year to donate 200,000 sticks of electrolyte drink mix to volunteer fire departments.
