Warming centers open to anyone seeking relief from the cold
The deep freeze prompted the City of Memphis to open three "warming centers." I was tasked with finding a family or people seeking relief in one of them. It worried me a little. People are prideful and are not always willing to talk about potential hardships. However, I found at least two men who were willing to share their stories. One of them even brought his 10 year-old son with him to stay warm. I was glad to see people taking advantage of something that really could keep them safe, and warm.
