A-B Sends Over 25,000 Cases of Emergency Drinking Water to Wisconsin

Anheuser-Busch delivered more than 25,000 cans of emergency drinking water to east-central Wisconsin to support residents and first responders in recovery efforts following a tornado in the Fox Cities region.

The donation of emergency drinking water was shipped to Anheuser-Busch wholesaler partner Wisconsin Distributors, whose team partnered with the American Red Cross to distribute the delivery to community members and organizations in need.

“The American Red Cross is deeply grateful to Anheuser-Busch and its wholesaler partner Wisconsin Distributors for their generous donation and delivery of safe drinking water in Wisconsin following a tornado in the Fox Cities region,” said Lauren Ulrich, Executive Director of Operations Management and Logistics for the American Red Cross. “We appreciate their partnership and ongoing support of our mission.”

The 25,000+ cans of water were sourced from A-B's brewery in Cartersville, Ga., which alongside the Fort Collins, Colorado brewery, periodically pauses beer production to can emergency drinking water and help communities in times of disaster.
