The Phoenix Heat Relief Network augments the efforts of agencies assisting
people who are homeless and adds additional community resources to the system.
The Phoenix Heat Relief Network operates during the months when temperatures
consistently rise above 100F, particularly when nightime temperatures also
are high and extreme heat advisories are issued by the National Weather
Service.
This is typically from June to August.
The Heat Relief Network provides:
Hydration stations
Heat refuges
Water donation points
Outreach to those that are homeless
Help the Phoenix Heat Relief Network!
Your church or organization can help by collecting donations of
bottled water for those that are on the street during the hot
summer months.
Tax-deductible donations of bottled water may be delivered to any of the
city's four Family Services Centers. Acknowledgement of donation is available.
