(WBAP/KLIF) — With North Texas warming shelters at capacity, one group is stepping up.
Cold temperatures are creating a shortage of beds at area shelters as temperatures are expected to remain in the low thirties through the weekend. According to Salvation Army Major Paul McFarland, the homeless can take advantage of a warm meal, comfortable room, and a bed.
That’s because the Salvation Army has opened additional facilities to meet demand in Plano, McKinney, Arlington, Garland, and at the Fort Worth Mabee Center. Bitter cold weather is expected to continue for the Metroplex into the weekend with a threat of flurries, Friday night.
The Salvation Army is the largest shelter provider in North Texas with volunteers are on hand throughout the cold spell.
