The Salvation Army will open 13 different cooling stations this week across five counties in North Texas after temperatures hit 100 degrees on Sunday, officials said.
Service centers will offer water bottles and portable fans to those who need them, and some locations will have outdoor cooling stations with canteens, a representative for the Salvation Army said.
Social distancing and mask requirements will be in effect at the locations, as well as the use of gloves, hand sanitizer and other sanitizing measures.
Each location will also continue to have drive-thru grocery services for families impacted by COVID-19.
