In general, we at EDS prepare for times of disaster - whether it's for something like a large-scale hurricane, or a local building fire, we will be there to support survivors and first responders. Being ready to provide for the immediate needs of food and hyrdration (among other donations we get and give), means we need items in our warehouse organized and ready to go in an emergency. Your help goes a long way, thank you.
