The aftermath of heavy flooding in Everman has prompted the American Red Cross to extend its support by providing shelter for affected residents, as reported by WFAA, a media affiliate of Star-Telegram.
Dallas-Fort Worth bore the brunt of torrential rain late Saturday and early Sunday, accumulating a staggering 2.34 inches, a record noted by the National Weather Service in Fort Worth.
Residents in need can find refuge at the Everman Civic Center, situated at 213 North Race Street, where they can access essential amenities such as snacks, water, disaster relief, and dinner, as detailed by WFAA. The shelter, freely accessible to all, only requires individuals to furnish their name and pre-flood residence details.
For those unable to reach the shelter in person but still in need of assistance following rain-induced property damage, contacting 800-733-2767 connects them to the Red Cross for potential aid.
This isn’t the first time the Red Cross has responded to flooding in Everman; a similar initiative was undertaken in 2022, demonstrating the organization’s commitment to aiding communities in distress. Teams deployed in emergency vehicles during the previous flooding event underline the Red Cross’s dedication to swift and effective disaster response.
