BlueTriton Mobilizes Relief Efforts to Deliver Clean Water and Resources to Communities Impacted by Hurricane Helene

More than 486,000 bottles of water have been donated so far with more on the way providing essential support as recovery efforts continue

As communities across the Southeastern United States recover from the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene, BlueTriton Brands is supplying critical clean water to those in need. Through swift collaboration with disaster relief partners, BlueTriton has delivered bottled water to impacted areas including 11 communities across five states, despite significant logistical challenges.

Earlier this week, BlueTriton delivered the following:

• World Central Kitchen, Asheville, NC: Ready Refresh®, BlueTriton’s direct-to-consumer delivery platform, has made two deliveries totaling eleven pallets of 1-liter Deer Park water, totaling 440 cases and 7,920 bottles and five pallets of 1-gallon bottles, totaling 175 cases and 1,050 bottles.

• Americares: BlueTriton is working closely with Americares to distribute truckloads of water totaling 3,120 cases and 74,880 bottles to local organizations including Northside Baptist Church/Salvation Army, Valdosta, GA and The Salvation Army, Tampa, FL. Additional donations to hard hit areas of Georgia and Tennessee are scheduled to be delivered by the weekend.  

• First Baptist Church, Southern Pines, NC: BlueTriton has contributed 24 pallets of 0.5-liter water bottles to those impacted in Southern Pines, NC, totaling 1,872 cases and 44,928 bottles, to aid relief efforts in the Southeastern region.

Supporting communities is a core value for BlueTriton, especially in times of urgent need. Hurricane Helene’s destruction has required both perseverance and creativity to ensure help reaches those who need it most. Guided by its commitment to "being fiercely good," and with a leadership team that encourages swift action, BlueTriton overcame logistical challenges to mobilize product donations.

"In the wake of Hurricane Helene, we’ve seen our employees and the communities we serve come together to support one another in extraordinary ways, demonstrating the resilience and compassion that is at the core of who we are,” said Joey Bergstein, CEO of BlueTriton Brands. “From the employees on the ground who worked tirelessly to deliver clean water to those in need, to our local partners who’ve helped us reach the hardest-hit areas, this effort has truly embodied our commitment to being ‘fiercely good’ And ensuring our neighbors have access to one of life's most essential resources.”

Through partnerships with disaster relief organizations like Americares and World Central Kitchen, BlueTriton has been able to quickly identify needs and deliver clean water to storm-impacted communities, including leveraging local ReadyRefresh branches for rapid delivery. BlueTriton also works with national disaster relief organizations like the American Red Cross, Feeding America, and Convoy of Hope to donate bottled water in preparation for events like Hurricane Helene.  

Next week in North Carolina, Deer Park will focus its community efforts in Winston-Salem on directing school supplies to Asheville, as part of its sponsorship of the Carolina Classic Fair.

In the wake of Helene, BlueTriton's Product Supply team members have been providing meals, showers, and other resources to colleagues and their families directly affected by the hurricane, reinforcing the company’s dedication to its people and communities.

BlueTriton will continue to monitor needs on the ground and respond to further requests as access improves in the hardest-hit areas.
