to communities impacted by the winter storm


FEBRUARY 25, 2021  Cincinnati, OH In partnership with P&G, Matthew 25: Ministries has deployed their Disaster Response Team to assist areas affected by the recent winter storm in Texas. The team arrived in the Dallas area with a selection of their Disaster Response vehicles, including the Tide Loads of Hope Mobile Unit, a Cintas panel truck and pickup trucks loaded with bottled water, batteries, sanitizer, first aid and safety supplies, and several P&G products including Always, Charmin, Crest and Pampers. The team will distribute products, provide laundry services and meet with partners in the area to discuss ongoing needs. Matthew 25: Ministries also began shipping truckloads of aid to the affected region earlier this week.

Laundry services will be provided by the Tide Loads of Hope Mobile Unit at the following location:

Literacy Achieves 6329 Ridgecrest Rd. Dallas, TX 75231
Friday, February 26, 2021 and Saturday, February 27, 2021

10:00 AM CST – 5:00 PM CST, daily (or until capacity is reached)

Matthew 25’s Disaster Response Team will be distributing supplies throughout affected communities.

Matthew 25: Ministries has been able to establish updated COVID-19 safety protocols and processes that help keep both the team and beneficiaries at distribution and Tide Loads of Hope activation sites protected, while still allowing us to provide supplies and free laundry services to households whose lives have been impacted by major disasters. Safety precautions for the deployment include social distancing on-site, increased use of PPE, increased sanitation practices, signage instructions and non-contact registration. In addition, the team will adhere to all local health agency COVID-19 guidelines.
