Kerr County Floods: How You Can Support

The devastating floods continue to impact families, communities and businesses across Central Texas. Our thoughts are with those facing unimaginable loss right now. Our friends at Texas Restaurant Association are responding quickly to support business owners in the area via Restaurants Respond.
During this time, we know that many people are looking for ways to support and donate. We are encouraging people to make a 100% tax-deductible donation to Mercy Chefs—a 501(c)(3) who are already on the ground providing hot meals to first responders and impacted families in Kerrville.
