The Support Our First Responders campaign in Lubbock is in its final week, and organizers are urgently asking for help. The goal is 60 pallets of bottled water to keep firefighters, police officers, and EMS crews hydrated through the West Texas summer. Right now, they’ve only secured 32 pallets — meaning 28 more pallets are needed before the July 31st deadline.
A $200 donation covers one full pallet of bottled water, and contributions can be made through the Lubbock County Office of Emergency Management. The campaign is organized by the Lubbock County Local Emergency Planning Committee, and every pallet goes directly to first responders working in extreme heat conditions. Staying hydrated isn’t just about comfort — it’s about keeping our emergency personnel healthy and ready to respond when someone calls 911.
If you’ve been looking for a way to give back to the people who protect and serve, this is a direct and practical option. Call 806-775-7300 to make a donation or get more information. Have you ever donated to a first responder support effort before? Let us know in the comments.
