Hydralyte’s Oral Rehydration Solutions aid those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma in need of hydration
CAMBRIDGE (September 27, 2017) – Hydralyte, a clinically formulated oral rehydration solution (ORS), has donated over 30,000 liters of electrolyte solutions to support and aid those affected by Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma.
Flooding from both Hurricanes may compromise the supply or safety of drinking water for the people of Houston and communities all over Florida. The aid of Hydralyte solutions provides effective hydration by replenishing both fluids and additional electrolytes. Hydralyte’s donation was sent to multiple organizations at work in Texas and Florida including:
- The American Red Cross
- Multiple Feeding America shelters: Houston Food Bank, Central Texas Food Bank and Corpus Christi Food Bank
“We support the people of Houston and across Florida during this challenging time,” said Charles Whiting, CEO, Hydralyte. “As the people of Texas and Florida join together, we are committed to helping these groups at work and the people affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma stay hydrated while rebuilding their homes and communities.”
