MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Thousands of water bottles were loaded onto trucks in Miami Gardens on Monday, headed for Jackson, Miss., where many residents are without clean water.
The city of Miami Gardens partnered with UPS and the Orange Blossom Classic (OBC) to help residents of Jackson, which has been dealing with a water crisis following heavy rain and flooding in late August.
“We got people in need of support and we’re going to make sure that we’re there for them,” Miami Gardens Vice Mayor Reggie Leon told the Miami Herald.
