Nearly 22 inches of rain have fallen in the Greater Atlanta Metropolitan and surrounding areas, shutting down roads and bridges as well as forcing many families from their homes.
Teams deployed earlier this week and are coordinating with local partners and emergency management officials to provide immediate strategic relief such as emergency food distributions and daily hot meals served from OBI’s mobile kitchen.
Operation Blessing is also identifying the hardest hit communities needing assistance with cleanup and recovery efforts as well as assembling volunteer teams.
