Georgia Flood Victims Turn to the Red Cross

A week of flash floods in the Atlanta, Georgia area leave many residents homeless with nowhere to turn.
With flood levels reaching over five inches, water forced its way through homes, destroying everything in its path, and forcing residents to evacuate.

Flood victims were brought to the Cobb County Civic Center, where The Red Cross offered aid to over 86 people who had lost everything because of the flood.

With the support of the Red Cross, flood victims were provided with food, shelter and mental counseling.

The Red Cross is in need of volunteers to assist victims affect by the floods. If you would like more information on how to lend a hand, visit atlantaredcross.org
