The Duggar family is never hesitant to come together in a time of need and when it comes to giving back to the community, you can count on them. In the latest episode (July 21), The Duggar family revealed that they were upset when they heard the news about Hurricane Dorian hitting the Bahamas. 

Many people were affected during the hurricane with many losing their homes. To help them, the Duggar family thought it would be best to send them food items and water. Ever since the hurricane hit the place, they noticed a loss of clean drinking water. The Duggar family asked others to donate with the hope of helping people in need. 

Luckily for them, many came forward and participated in the drive. Jana and Abbie Duggar decided to help people connect to the right people in case they needed help or any specific team. 

Meanwhile, Jason and John David Duggar helped to collect all the items and transport them to the flights that were taking the package to the Bahamas. John David also helped people who had been injured by bringing the right medical care to them. He admitted that there was not a lot of medical help he could give has he did not have the experience but made it clear that it wasn't going to stop him from helping people. 

Meanwhile, Jason felt good about helping people. "Real blessing is to help," he said while recalling how lucky he has always been in life as he has got everything. The Duggar family admitted that a situation like this can happen to anyone and it was important to be there for people who needed help. 

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar have always motivated their children to come together to help the community. Growing up and working with the community the family has been able to help a lot of people. As the family helped people affected by the hurricane, they assured the viewers that they will always be ready to help people in a time of trouble. 

'Counting On' airs on Tuesdays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
