Texas Flood Disaster Aid

We are devastated by the flash flood and severe weather disaster in Texas, which has caused unimaginable loss. Among the tragedies is the heartbreaking loss of many young lives at Camp Mystic in Hunt, Texas. We know how special summer camp is for so many in our community — a place where young people feel like the best version of themselves. Our hearts break for the Mystic community and all those impacted by this tragedy. We pray for healing and rebuilding.

Gratefully, there are many organizations supporting the victims of the flood. The Jewish community in nearby Austin has created a fund where all donations are going directly to supporting victims and rebuilding efforts. Click this link to donate to Shalom Austin's Flood Relief Campaign.
