This week, Richard McAlister from the American Red Cross will talk about the organization’s response to Hurricane Beryl and its ongoing efforts for disaster relief. Hurricane Beryl significantly damaged Galveston’s electrical infrastructure, leaving approximately 2.3 million people without power. The Red Cross has opened 10 shelters in the Texas Gulf Coast region, providing over 2,100 bed spaces to assist those affected by the hurricane. These shelters offer climate-controlled environments, essential services such as food, hydration, and medical care to prevent heat-related illnesses, which could exceed the hurricane’s fatality rate. The Red Cross is committed to supporting the affected community for as long as necessary.
