Metro volunteers help those stranded in heat find relief at Cobb County cooling centers
Starting Monday, cooling centers will reopen to help residents escape the soaring temperatures. Over the weekend, volunteers like Bryant Plater from MUST Ministries have been out on the streets, offering water and juice and informing people about free bus rides to the cooling center.
Joseph Cook, owner of Cooks Heating and Air, shares how the heat wave has strained older air conditioning systems, leading to increased demand for his services. His team has been working late into the night to keep up with customer calls.
Cobb County has allocated $180,000 to keep the cooling center in Marietta open through September, which has significantly reduced heat-related emergency calls.
The MUST Ministries Cooling Center at 1297 Bells Ferry Road opens on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and weekends from 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., providing meals and a cool space for those in need.
