Flooding hits United Against Poverty in Orlando

Floodwaters struck the United Against Poverty center in Orlando after heavy rains drenched the area.

Videos posted by the center show water still filling the parking lot and pouring into the building.

Anjali Vaya, the executive director of United Against Poverty, described the situation after receiving an urgent call from the store manager on Sunday evening.

“So it was around 4, 4:30 (p.m.) yesterday, and the store manager called, ‘Anjali, there is water coming in from everywhere,’” Vaya said.
