4Patriots Steps Up to Help in Weather-Ravaged Texas

By now I’m sure all of you have heard about Winter Storm Uri and its devastating effects on Texas and other states in the Deep South in early February.

More than 30 people lost their lives and quite a few others were hospitalized. Some 5 million U.S. homes and businesses suffered power outages, as well as another 4.7 million in Mexico.

Record-breaking frigid temperatures and a killer storm featuring snow and ice did the damage. It was colder in Texas than it was in parts of Alaska.

Some of you experienced this storm firsthand. Including some who are still dealing with the awful aftermath. Our hearts go out to you.

Targeting 10 Texas Organizations

Here at 4Patriots, we have been blessed. We consider ourselves very fortunate to be able to provide products that help people face disasters such as this one.

And while we have expressed our sorrow and reached out with words of encouragement to those who were negatively affected by Winter Storm Uri, we don’t feel that’s enough.

So, we have decided to donate a total of $10,000 to food banks and other humanitarian organizations in major cities in Texas. Financial donations are going to:

  • San Antonio Food Bank
  • Central Texas Food Bank in Austin
  • Austin Disaster Relief Fund
  • North Texas Food Bank in Dallas
  • The Stewpot in Dallas (a haven for homeless and at-risk individuals)
  • Houston Food Bank
  • West Street Recovery in Houston
  • Texas Relief Warriors in Houston
  • The Houston Humane Society

In addition, 4Patriots has donated a variety of survival products to Bigun’s Hope, a Texas-based organization. Their mission is to help the most people in the shortest amount of time for the greater good of communities before, during and after a disaster.

Donated products include Patriot Power Generators, Patriot Power Cells, Sun Kettles and Survival Food.

Thank You for Helping Us Help Them

The reason I’m sharing this information is not to pat ourselves on the back. I just want you to know that your purchases of our products do more than merely sit in a bank account collecting interest.

Those purchases make possible our donations to these types of humanitarian organizations. As well as to those organizations that support U.S. military active-duty service men and women, veterans and their families.

We don’t consider this an obligation. We consider it a privilege. Thanks for joining us on this rewarding journey.

Special thanks to TQL's Moves that Matter for covering the shipping costs of this donation.

    The Kerrville, Texas food bank could use your help as well. We had 8 days of 9 degree weather with 12"-18" of SNOW, yes SNOW for 12 days. We could not leave our homes and people in the Hill Country (as well as San Antonio) never heard of snow plows.
    My husband and I had our Patriot Power Generator 1800, our Cell Power Packs, Our Bug Out Lanterns, Our HaloXT Multi-Use Flashlights (along with our fireplace) as well as all of our 4Patriots food storage all protecting us from Mother Nature.
    We had no idea that February 2021 would end up being an historic month in the state of Texas. But mother nature did her best to get that record. It was 9 degrees for 8 days and we had 12-18 inches of snow. That just does not happen in the Texas Hill Country. Our power grid was not prepared and we had rolling blackouts some for 3-4 hours other for 9-12 hours. But thanks to 4Patriots and our decision to purchase the Patriot Power Generator 1800 we survived the unexpected. We had our bug out lanterns for extra light and our generator to keep things powered up when the grid went down. We were able to keep our phones charged and our food safe (in the fridge) thanks to the Patriot Power Generator 1800.
    We found ourselves in uncharted territory but being prepared kept us safe and alive.

    Thank you for donating the items to help those poor folks that are in such need. I am saving my pennies so I can purchase a solar generator sometime in the future.

  • Myrna Massie - March 08, 2021

    I ordered the Sidekick solar power generator in Feb some time. I put it on a payment plan and already I have made a payment of $99.00. It is for my financee’s birthday in April. I am hopeing to receive it before I have to buy something else for him. We live in the country so we have power outages some- times and need something other than candles Thank you, Myrna, (love your stuff)

  • Dennis Valley - March 08, 2021

    I am very happy to hear about 4Patriots helping out. You can count on my support. I have found that my senior neighbor was very interested un your products. I think I will reach out to more seniors regarding your products. I will make it a mission. I am saving up for the big generator. Thanks for helping Texas.

    I am on the Village of Wilson Planning Board. We recently formed a Wilson Veterans Committee and partnered with WNY Heroes, Inc. to provide food for our local Veterans. My father once told me, “If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish you feed him for his life.” Wilson Mayor Arthur Lawson is a (3) time Purple Heart Recipient and was once “Officially” declared dead from an explosion during a combat mission. He works to help Veterans returning from service to get back on their feet and manages the responsibilities of a Mayor in our Village. Art has said," No one is more committed to supporting a cause than a veteran returning from service." 4 Patriots similarly also educates Americans on the BIG PICTURE of helping each other. Please contact Mayor Lawson (716) 208-4568 to see what he has in store for our small village located on the Shores of Lake Ontario!!

    I purchased the solar power cell charger for my husband for Christmas. I am so glad I did. During the Texas winter storm power outage, I was able to keep our phones charged when we had no power and no heat for days. It was a life saver!

    Thank you for your generousity and compassion.

    4 Patriots has actually been giving more than you know. Let me explain. I started buying from 4 Patriots a few years ago when I purchased a solar powered generator. I live in an all electric house and was concerned about power outages. This started a long and wonderful journey with 4 Patriots as I have purchased a number of items from generator, food kits to flashlights and many other things in between. I have also purchase flashlights, even BugOut solar lanterns as gifts.

    At those time when the 72 Hour Survival Kits were included as freebies with my purchases, I felt that I had more than enough emergency food, so I started giving those 72 Hour kits to people I felt could use them in an emergency, weather related or economic related. So you can see how you folks have actually given twice. Thank you for giving me those kits so I could pass them to others.

    Thankfully, I didn’t loose either electric power or water, just had a broken water pipe in my back yard; and with the food supplies I had purchased from you, I was doing so much better than some of my other Texas neighbors.

    If you decide to publish this, please don’t publish my name as I live in a very small city (population approximately 1700+ now) about 80 miles from San Antonio, and very few know I have done this. If you would, just say from Anon. in Texas.

    Thank you again for your with your generous gifts.

  • Chris LaPlante - March 08, 2021

    At my home in Austin I was fortunate to escape the great deep freeze of 2021 with just a busted pipe outside that caused no damage to my home. But lots of my family and friends were not so lucky. They needed the help of several of the agencies that 4Patriots provided with financial assistance. Thank you 4Patriots for your generosity. I will continue to be a fan and a customer.

  • Verna Mosby - March 08, 2021

    Bless you for caring and helping. I have learned a lot in the last year, with your company , and glad to utilize my treasures accumulated for weather or ANY disaster you may become involved in. The fact that YOU are giving, also, makes me proud to do business with a REAL hearted company! Thank You!

  • Bill Alguire - March 08, 2021

    You folks are a wonderful standup organization!!! Thank You for helping the people of Texas.

  • Cody Northrup - March 08, 2021

    I live in Kimble County TX. Extremely rural. My family and I are lucky enough to have been prepared for this weather food and water wise. Many cannot say the same. There is no food bank that I know of in this county. There are good samaritan’s doing what they can. People are still without running water due to old, worn out plumbing that just breaks as soon as it’s fixed. Thanks for your efforts, but all of those areas listed are already being focused on.

  • Jessica Herring - March 08, 2021

    I am glad I chose to purchase from you now that I have seen this. Thank you for helping Texas. Your philanthropy efforts are appreciated. We appreciate you giving back!

  • Darleen Mehtonen - March 04, 2021

    Your donation to help others will always be remembered, your kindness appreciated in a lifetime to help others.

  • Christopher Bell - March 02, 2021
