How to Support the Hill Country Community

Our hearts are heavy for those in Kerrville and the surrounding areas in the Hill Country during this unimaginable time of loss and devastation. The flooding that swept through our beloved region has shaken us all to our core, taking precious lives, such as the camp counselors and children at Camp Mystic.

There are a few ways you can support the communities affected by the flooding in the Hill Country area. We have compiled these resources with love, hoping that they will provide some measure of comfort and practical assistance as our community begins the long journey of healing and rebuilding. This is not just a list of phone numbers and websites; these are lifelines extended from one heart to another.
