FEMA Food Drop
West Bank Bureau
The Red Cross has set up seven sites to distribute food, water and ice in Jefferson Parish.
On the West Bank:
A&P Shopping Center, Carol Sue and Terry Parkway, Terrytown.
Harvey Fire Station No. 61, 639 Maple St., Harvey.
L.W. Higgins High School, 7201 Lapalco Blvd., Marrero.
On the east bank:
East Jefferson High School, 400 Phlox, Metairie
Grace King High School, 4301 Grace King Place, Metairie
Winn Dixie, 211 Veterans Blvd., Metairie
Home Depot, 2625 Veterans Blvd., Kenner.
Also, FEMA has set up distribution sites at the Alario Center, 2000 Segnette Blvd., Westwego, and has moved the east bank site from Zephyr field to the parish transit facility at Saints and David Drive.
Mayor of Kenner (western suburbs of Louisiana) is also bitterly complaining about the lack of response from FEMA thus far, states there's been no water, no food, no anything. Interesting in that New Orleans Int'l Airport is IN Kenner.... |
