The Verizon Foundation is stepping up to support communities devastated by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton with a total of $2 million in donations to aid relief and recovery efforts.
United Way of Southeast Louisiana (UWSELA), Verizon, Hyfi, New Orleans City Council, community partners and residents gathered Thursday at the J. Wayne Leonard Prosperity City (2041 Canal Street) to celebrate the rollout of a new technology for stormwater detection.
Verizon and our vendor partners were able to restore fiber to the Hammond area and deploy portable assets to the Raceland area, so at this time, there are no longer any significant gaps in service anywhere throughout the storm-impacted areas in Louisiana.
Verizon Frontline technology has been delivered to 14 locations in Arizona by the Verizon Response Team (VRT) to help enable mission-critical communications in remote areas as first responders battle wildfires throughout the state.
Today, the Verizon Foundation announced $300,000 in donations to support immediate relief efforts across communities in California, Oregon and Washington impacted by the wildfires, as well as hardest hit areas of Alabama and Florida impacted by Hurricane Sally.
When disaster strikes, first responders need to mobilize quickly to assess the situation and communicate what’s needed for rescue and relief efforts. There’s no doubt 5G can help play a critical role when it comes to evolving response connectivity.
First responders put their lives at risk daily, and Verizon supports these heroes. That’s why we recently made a $10,000 investment to the First Responders Foundation that will help expand and grow the Foundation, serving more first responders.
