In light of the Davis Fire that has impacted Washoe County, Nevada,
Verizon is reinforcing its commitment to the communities it serves
by donating $10,000 to the American Red Cross Northern Nevada
Chapter. This funding is intended to support local relief efforts.
“We send support and strength to those affected by the Davis
Fire," said Steven Keller, Pacific Market President at Verizon.
"Verizon understands the importance of support during times of
crisis, and we hope this donation provides essential aid and hope
as recovery begins.”
Verizon’s cell sites remain operational across Washoe County,
Nevada. The organization is committed to keeping customers in
Washoe County connected, especially during emergencies and disaster
relief efforts, with extensive redundancy measures and backup power
solutions across critical sites to ensure seamless service. Its
fleet of over 550 mobile assets, including drone and aerial
technologies, is ready to rapidly deploy and deliver essential
connectivity. This capability is complemented by Verizon’s
pioneering use of nearly 300 satellite-based assets, ensuring
reliable communication even when traditional infrastructures are
compromised. The
Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team continues its support of
first responders on the front lines of fire response and
containment operations in Nevada and across the nation. This year
alone, the team has delivered nearly 2,000 Verizon Frontline
solutions to fire camps in 13 states, including Nevada, to help
provide federal, state and local public safety agencies with
mission-critical voice and data service as they battled wildfires.
These solutions have been provided in response to more than 200
requests for support from more than 60 agencies as they dealt with
nearly 100 different named wildfires.
This marks the team’s latest response
to requests for support from public safety agencies engaged in
emergency response operations. In the first nine months of 2024,
the Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team has responded to more
than 1,000 such requests from more than 500 different agencies in
46 states.
The Verizon Frontline Crisis Response
Team provides on-demand, emergency assistance during crisis
situations to government agencies and emergency responders on a
24/7 basis at no cost to the supported agencies. Verizon Frontline
Crisis Response Team members set up portable cell sites, Wi-Fi
hotspots, charging stations and other Verizon Frontline devices and
solutions that enable communications and/or boost network
performance.
