Storm Recovery Update from The Salvation Army San Antonio.
We are grateful to report that power has been restored at our Area Command and shelter facilities, and everyone in our care remains safe, dry, and accounted for.
While our roof was destroyed and shelter rooms sustained water damage during the recent storms, our team is actively inspecting each room to assess the full extent of the damage and begin the clean-up and repair process. In the meantime, shelter residents have been comfortably relocated to a common area within our building. Our kitchen remains fully functional and operational, allowing us to continue providing meals and support without interruption.
Today, our canteen truck will be deployed into the community to distribute ready-to-eat meals to individuals and families who may have lost food during the power outage. If you or someone you know is in need of a meal, please watch our page for updates on distribution locations.
We are incredibly thankful for the outpouring of support from our community. A special thank you to the Texas Diaper Bank and the SAISD Foundation for their generous donations of new bedding and towels, and to RISE Church for donating sheets for our shelter residents. Your kindness is helping bring comfort, dignity, and hope to those we serve during this challenging time.
