Red Cross opens shelter in Everman as heavy rain leads to flood damage in homes
The American Red Cross is offering shelter for people in Everman after heavy flooding in the area whose homes were damaged, Star-Telegram media partner WFAA reported.
Heavy rain pounded Dallas-Fort Worth late Saturday and early Sunday, with a record 2.34 inches by the National Weather Service in Fort Worth.
The shelter, located at the Everman Civic Center at 213 North Race Street, is offering snacks, water, disaster assistance, a dinner meal and other resources, WFAA reported. The shelter is free and open to the public and only requires residents to provide their name and the place they were living before the flooding.
If your home was damaged due to rain or flooding, call 800-733-2767 to see if the Red Cross can provide assistance for people who can’t make it to the shelter in person.
The Red Cross set up a shelter in Everman after flooding in 2022, as well. Red Cross teams went out in emergency response vehicles while responding to that flooding.
