Help your neighbors in Scottsdale this summer by donating water and other heat relief items.
With temperatures on the rise, Scottsdale is providing heat relief to those in need this summer. The city’s hydration stations and Beat the Heat Program rely on donations from the public to meet the high demand in Scottsdale.
