TEXAS – While the storm itself has come and gone, Hurricane Beryl cleanup efforts continue in Brazoria. Operation Blessing met Kymberly Bagwell and her family to offer help after the storm caused damage to her property. “We hadn’t really had a hurricane hit us the way it did. We heard some trees cracking and some noises outside.”
The morning after the storm, Kymberly checked out her property. “It took my breath away. I mean, it was devastating.” She continued, “The first thing I noticed was my chicken coop. It was leaning. It looked completely destroyed. Then I noticed the big tree in the back that completely covered the backyard and all the debris. There were tree limbs down everywhere.”
Now Kymberly was left to cleanup the debris by herself—a daunting and physically strenuous task for the young mother. With her husband working long hours and her time consumed by her children, Kymberly wasn’t sure how her family could start recovery. “I knew it was going to be a process to get everything back to normal, knowing that this was going to take so long to clean up.”
That’s when Operation Blessing stepped in.
Volunteers Help With Hurricane Beryl Cleanup Efforts
Operation Blessing volunteers were there to help with Hurricane Beryl cleanup efforts. Kymberly shared, “I actually met with a gentleman who was telling me that they were offering help for people with their yard that was a disaster.” She was grateful, “All the guys in the blue that you see, they are in my yard helping me and cleaning my yard up.”
Thanks to the generous support of friends like you, Operation Blessing chopped and removed large trees and limbs from her property, making it safer for Kymberly’s family. “You know, my kids, I don’t have to worry about them getting in any of the trees and the limbs and all of that. I’m very thankful for anyone who chooses to donate with Operation Blessing. They are doing the work out of the kindness of their heart.”
You can help even more families like Kymberly’s by partnering with Operation Blessing.
