In Puerto Rico, drought conditions combined with issues from dated infrastructure led to water shortages and emergency water rationing measures across the island.
In response, UMCOR awarded a solidarity grant to REHACE as they offer immediate relief, including safe drinking water and water storage containers; emergency food assistance; hygiene and cleaning kits; flashlights, batteries, and other essential emergency supplies; and direct assistance to older adults, people with disabilities, families with children, and other vulnerable populations affected by prolonged water and power interruptions.
