❓ What weighs 144 lbs, says little, but delivers lots of love? 💗 ✅ Meet Perrin, the therapy dog! 🐶 Today he spread his special brand of friendship to wildfire evacuees living in the @RedCross shelter in Reno. Judging by the smiles he generated, Perrin made many new friends!

Generators can be deadly when not used according to the manufacturers directions and in a safe, dry, ventilated location. Traditionally, more deaths occur from improper use of generators than due to storm hazards.

@RedCross volunteer Marcia Antipa gives an update on the wildfire evacuee shelter at the Reno Sparks Convention Center. If you've been evacuated due to the fires, visit https://t.co/hXWG0Qkg7Q for a list of open shelters. Stay safe!

Significant flooding continues to occur throughout the region - including Center City. Shelters remain open at West Philadelphia HS, Roxborough HS, Norristown HS and Coatesville HS. We continue to evaluate conditions with our partners and will open additional locations as needed.

We're matching up to $5M in customer donations to the @RedCross to support communities impacted by disasters in 2021. This is in addition to the $5M commitment for Hurricane Ida relief made by @Walmart, the Walmart Foundation and @SamsClub early this week. https://t.co/L71yN3Udxl
