How You Can Help Houston-area Evacuees in Our Area

Posted/span> on August 30, 2017 in Barbara Bush, Blair, Blalack, Blanton, Carrollton, Central, Community, Country Place, Creekview, Davis, District News, Early College, Farmers Branch, Field, Freeman, Furneaux, Good, Kent, La Villita, Landry, Las Colinas, Long, Mary Grimes Center, McCoy, McKamy, McLaughlin, McWhorter, Perry, Polk, Rainwater, Ranchview, Riverchase, Rosemeade, Sheffield, Smith High School, Stark, Thompson, Turner High School

How You Can Help Houston-area Evacuees in Our Area

As we in the CFB community have watched the events unfold to our south, our hearts have broken as we wonder how we can help Houston-area flood victims. Because of the rising water, many of our neighbors from the south have headed to our area for shelter and for school. For those interested in making an immediate impact on the lives of our new neighbors, Metrocrest Services is taking donations for this effort. Metrocrest Services is a local charitable organization that supports individuals and families in the CFB community. The organization provides food, clothing, classes, and more for the people they serve. Due to the surge of Hurricane Harvey refugees, food and hygiene items are currently their biggest needs.

If you’d like to help but are unable to donate at this time, another way you can help is to volunteer for Metrocrest Services.

Please visit the Metrocrest Services website for more information on the specific needs for our new students, families, and neighbors from Houston and surrounding areas.
