American Red Cross Relief Station Open at Sonora City Hall
Sonora, Texas – The City of Sonora is working closely with the American Red Cross to provide assistance to residents impacted by the devastating flood event on July 13, 2025.

Earlier today, the City received a call from American Red Cross team members who are currently in Sonora conducting door-to-door outreach in flood-affected neighborhoods. After assessing the situation, the decision was made around 2:00 p.m. to relocate their operations indoors to City Hall in order to offer services in a more centralized and controlled environment.
 
Relief Supplies Available
If you or your household was impacted by flooding and you are in need of cleaning or recovery supplies, please come by Sonora City Hall at 201 East Main. Supplies available include:

• Cleaning kits (mops, brooms, disinfectants)
• Rakes, shovels, gloves
• Trash bags and tarps
• Muck-out kits for heavy cleaning

The American Red Cross team will be stationed at City Hall (201 E. Main, Sonora, Texas) today until 6:00 p.m. and will return tomorrow, Thursday, July 17, from 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. to continue providing assistance.

Statement from Art Fuentes, Emergency Management Coordinator:
 
“I’m so thankful that we have this continued relationship with the American Red Cross. This agency does so much for our community. They were here for us in 2018, and they’re back with us again now in 2025. We appreciate everything they’re doing for the families of Sonora.”
