When natural disasters occur, communities are often left unprepared and scrambling for even the basic needs.With this in mind, and after the firsthand experiences from numerous deployments, DeWeather Cares created "Cares Kits".

Each Cares Kit comes in a weatherproof, resealable pouch containing 3 days worth of basic personal hygiene items, first aid supplies and other items intended to get impacted individuals through the immediate days following a natural disaster until infrastructure and long-term assistance can be established. Nothing in the Cares Kits requires water, thereby enabling water to be used for more important purposes like hydration.

Supplies used for Cares Kits are purchased by donors from our Amazon Wish List. Volunteers assemble the kits at our headquarters, and then they're delivered by our Disaster Task Force to communities impacted by natural disasters.

When the Disaster Task Force deploys to impacted communities, the Task Force members focus on getting Cares Kits directly into the hands of those who need them most.
