Each participating store will distribute more than 200 buckets filled with essential recovery items, including sponges, goggles, moisture absorbers, water, heavy-duty contractor trash bags, flashlights, and batteries. The supplies will be available on a first-come, first-served basis while they last.

Nearly 100 Emergency Response Team members from Lowe’s have been deployed to assist with hurricane recovery efforts. These specially trained associates provide additional support to customers while allowing fellow store associates to focus on their families.
