Texas Flooding Fund

Town of Palm Beach United Way Announces $50,000 Matching Donation

The Town of Palm Beach United Way has established the Texas Flooding Fund to provide critical relief for communities impacted by the devastating flooding in Texas.

On July 4th, Kerr County, Texas, was devastated by a catastrophic weather event as months’ worth of rainfall fell in just four hours. The resulting flash floods caused the Guadalupe River to overflow, severely impacting the communities of Hunt and Kerrville. The flooding has led to a tragic loss of life, with dozens confirmed dead, and has displaced hundreds of residents as emergency crews continue rescue efforts and damage assessments.

The Texas Flooding Fund will support immediate and short-term needs such as shelter, food, clean water, emergency supplies, and other vital resources for individuals and families whose lives have been upended by the disaster.
