To celebrate the launch of Duracell Quantum, the world’s most advanced and long-lasting alkaline battery, “Dallas” actor Josh Henderson joined Duracell Quantum to make an important donation of 150,000 Quantum batteries to the first responders of Texas A&M Forest Service and Dallas Fire Rescue. The Texas A&M Forest Service will be distributing the batteries to local volunteer fire departments, including those in the Dallas and Fort Worth area.

Josh Henderson (“Dallas,” “Desperate Housewives”) and Duracell presented the donation of 150,000 new Duracell Quantum batteries to the Texas A&M Forest Service and Dallas Fire Rescue at Trinity River Audubon Center. Supporting first responders hits close to home for Henderson, a Dallas native whose grandfather proudly served with the Dallas Fire Rescue.

Duracell launched Quantum, the world’s most advanced and long lasting alkaline battery, and is donating 1 million of these powerful batteries to first responders across the country who need it most for their life-saving equipment.  Duracell also launched a documentary-style video series called “Quantum Heroes, which tell untold stories of sacrifice and heroism of first responders which will be screened at the event.  The series is also available to view on YouTube.com/Duracell.
