LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Salvation Army has started a meal service at the emergency evacuation center for Lake County residents who have been affected by the flooding.

A team from The Salvation Army Napa Corps will provide meal service and spiritual support at the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Lakeport, 1111 Park Way. 

Local Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services management plans for meals to be served through Monday afternoon, and staff will continue to assess if further assistance will be needed for the foreseeable future.

Monetary donations are only needed at this time. The Salvation Army uses 100-percent of disaster donations in support of local disaster relief operations.
