Supply Bridge Ministries donates food, water and supplies to Katyites in need
On Wednesday, July 10 Katy area residents were able to get free water at the Academy Sports + Outdoors store at23155 Katy Freeway in Katy. Starting at 9 a.m., five Academy stores across Houston distributed free 24-packs of bottled water to help those affected by Hurricane Beryl. Customers were directed to look for the 18-wheeler parked in front each of the five stores to pick up their free case of bottled water (no purchase necessary). Academy planned to donate nearly 8,000 24-packs of water in total to the greater Houston area, according to a company press release.
