All 12 Anheuser-Busch breweries have participated in this initiative, with facilities in Fort Collins and Cartersville now dedicated to year-round emergency water production. The company's latest batch will support volunteer fire departments nationwide, with plans to deliver 1.5 million cans to over 630 departments across 45 states ahead of wildfire season.
