American Red Cross North Texas Region Responds To DFW Tornado Outbreak
Currently, the Red Cross is working overtime to assist those affected by yesterday’s tornados. Almost 600 homes were damaged, with 200 reported destroyed, and approximately 21,550 households are without power. Right now, thanks to donations from supporters like you, the Red Cross is providing shelter and hot food, circulating in the affected areas to assess the damage as well as meet immediate needs and distributing more than 1,400 blankets at the airport to those who were forced to sleep there overnight.
Wondering what you can do to help those who need it? Besides sharing our page with friends and raising even more money for the American Red Cross, you can also text “REDCROSS” to 90999 to make a $10 donation that will go towards disaster relief. Thanks to all our awesome customers who’ve already liked our page, helped us donate $10,000 and made a difference— our thoughts are with everyone around us right as we rebuild the damage that was during these devastating storms!
