These efforts not only helped local families, but also those working tirelessly to restore power. More than 500 meals were provided to families and cold beverages and snacks were served to 90 first responders and city workers. The most recent local efforts occurred during the recent power outage when The Salvation Army, with the help of more than 70 volunteers, served 330 households with 380 sack lunches and 140 snack bags. The Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Response Team plays a crucial role in disaster response by offering basic needs to those who may have lost everything when disaster strikes.
