Samaritan’s Purse Expands Hurricane Relief With Third Response Location
Samaritan’s Purse expanded its hurricane response with a third operating location in Pensacola, Florida, as volunteers continued helping storm-affected families in Florida and Alabama.
A Disaster Relief Unit arrived at Myrtle Grove Baptist Church on October 27. Volunteer work at the new location is scheduled to begin October 29, the organization said.
Teams will remove fallen trees and debris and place tarps over damaged roofs. The ministry said thousands of families across its three response locations needed cleanup assistance.
The expansion follows Hurricane Isaias, which the organization said struck Gulf Coast communities nearly three weeks earlier as a Category 2 storm.
