There's an additional 50 families coming in to Palm Beach County every day from the storm-ravaged areas, and we're caring for them. We may need to open up three or four more shelters in the area.

We are opening more and more shelters every day, where in the past shelters were closed day by day.

That's really important, if you have kids in different schools, going to different neighborhoods, and going to different after school activities. We believe safety is knowing who lives in your neighborhood, near your home, near your place of worship, near the school, day care centers.
