In all her years of fundraising, Family Place CEO Paige Flink has never experienced anything like Dallas’ rallying spirit during the February storms. And she hopes she never needs it again.
Flink was sitting at her kitchen table command center when she sent a desperate tweet early in the afternoon of Tuesday, Feb. 16. The Family Place’s shelter was without power, 123 women and children were freezing, and the sprinkler system was about to burst. Pleading for help, she tagged city, county and state officials.
