DANVILLE, Va. – Disaster relief continues in Texas after Category 1 Hurricane Beryl pummeled the state last week. Danville-based relief group God’s Pit Crew is in Kingwood helping out.
Immediate Disaster Response Coordinator for God’s Pit Crew Chris Chiles said they’ve seen a lot of destruction to homes and have been working to help make repairs.
“This tree would probably cost about $20,000 to get out of this house, and they don’t have $20,000,” Chiles said. “It’s been rough down here. They haven’t had electricity, there’s been a bunch of people without electricity, so it’s about 110 degrees.”
The group plans to spend about two weeks in Texas.
