TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — St. Francis Shelter Community's cooling center officially opened at the City of Tucson's Ward 3 office, 1510 E. Grant Road, this week. The cooling center is open from 1 to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday at the Ward 3 office.

The center will be open through the beginning of September. Angela Murphy, the cooling center's manager, said they are looking not only for donations, but for volunteers.

"We’re looking for people that can commit to coming at least once a month," she said. "Volunteers are some of the best employees because you're showing up because you believe in this."

If you're looking to volunteer, information can be found here.
