The Salvation Army Deploys Relief Efforts Following North Texas Tornadoes
In the wake of the powerful storms and tornadoes that have severely impacted Denton, Collin, and Cooke counties in Texas, The Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Service (EDS) team, has mobilized three mobile kitchens from Lewisville, Fort Worth, and Sherman and a Rapid Response Unit from Irving to provide critical support to the affected communities.
The Salvation Army has established a presence in several areas affected by the storm. Each unit is equipped to deliver vital necessities such as food, water, and basic comforts directly to first responders and those in need within devastated areas. Trained personnel are also on hand to offer emotional and spiritual assistance, ensuring that survivors receive essential resources and comfort during this challenging time.
When disaster strikes, The Salvation Army disaster personnel collaborate with federal, state, and local emergency management agencies to monitor ongoing impacts and adapt response efforts as necessary.
