Convoy of Hope is en route to help those affected by the flooding in Houston, Texas.
Days of heavy rain pummeled the Houston area, swelling rivers and causing flash flooding. Crews have rescued hundreds of people stranded on rooftops, in their cars, or on murky roads. As of this morning, Houston is still under a river flood warning.
Convoy team members left the World Distribution Center early this morning with multiple loads of essential supplies, such as food, water, cleaning supplies, hygiene kits, and more.
Whatever the storm, Convoy is always prepared to bring help and hope to those in need.
