Clean Water Hurricane Relief Campaign
As a Texas native and Florida resident with my own family and friends directly impacted by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, my foundation – The Jack Brewer Foundation (JBF Worldwide) – is raising funds and bringing resources and relief to our fellow Texans and Floridians to help some of the millions of people displaced from these horrific storms.
​
We know that we cannot focus on all of the complex issues on the ground, so we are focusing our efforts on providing a critical, basic need of ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER to the those impacted in some of the most underserved communities that have not yet received sufficient clean water supplies, and many that have not yet received any aid whatsoever.
​
Contaminated water is a HUGE issue that thousands of Houstonians are currently facing – many completely displaced from their homes and living in cars with NO access to water, and others unable to use their running water due to contamination with microorganisms such as bacteria, sewage, heating oil, agricultural or industrial waste, chemicals and other substances that can cause serious illness. Many may not even realize some of the dangers of waterborne threats.
We are on the ground personally witnessing horror stories of folks who can't even bath, get clean drinking water from their faucets or are unable to clean their belongings properly because they don’t have clean water themselves or their families.
​
In Haiti and all over Africa, JBF Worldwide and our Global Ambassadors who are comprised of professional athletes and influencers, have helped bring clean drinking water using Aquatabs to the masses during crisis and disaster relief. It’s now time to rally and focus on the water crisis taking place in our own back yard. While many municipalities have ordered mandatory suspensions on water use and others recommending that residents use bleach or boil their faucet water; JBF believes that all hurricane victims should at least have access to Aquatabs and understand their benefits.
​
The Global Ambassadors are on the ground distributing our initial delivery which will help clean up to 200,000 gallons clean water as well as providing much needed supplies and support to those in dire need. We were able to find our first shipment of Aquatabs thanks to our generous partners in Haiti who helped us save over 70% on the cost of Aquatabs in the U.S.
​
Our Global Ambassadors are identifying women and children who need urgent assistance and helping them get more access to clean water as well as providing other critically needed supplies. JBF is actively making assessments and aligning with a number of partners who are hard at work on the ground.
​
Please help support our efforts as we urgently aim to reach our goal to provide OVER 5 MILLION GALLONS OF CLEAN WATER! Any contribution helps – as little as $20.00 can help provide up to 25 gallons of clean drinking water, which allows a family to clean, cook and drink clean water.
On behalf of JBF Worldwide and all of my fellow Texans and Floridians, I personally thank you in advance for your generosity in helping us in this difficult time!
​
God Bless,
JB
