Austin, Texas, February 10, 2023 – Volunteer teams from several Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN) member churches will head out into their communities this weekend to help clean up fallen trees, branches, and other debris left behind by the winter storm. ADRN has received more than 1,900 requests for help from Greater Austin residents in need, including those with physical or financial limitations. Teams will gather, organize, and then disperse across the region early Saturday morning, responding to as many needs as they can this weekend and in the coming days.
Anyone who would like to help with this enormous cleanup effort can join in. Find details about locations, times, and how to connect with a network church team on our Winter Storm 2023 Response Page (adrn.org/ws2023).
