Support for Texas Flood Victims – Join Us in Making a Difference
In the wake of the devastating flooding across the Texas Hill Country, countless families and communities are facing unimaginable challenges. Homes have been destroyed, livelihoods disrupted, and lives forever changed. The Texas State Society is rallying support to provide meaningful aid to those affected — and we hope you’ll join us.
As part of this effort, we’re hosting a fundraising event on Tuesday, July 22, from 6:00–8:00 PM at Royal Sands Social Club in Washington, D.C. This evening will be an opportunity to come together in solidarity and support, with all proceeds going directly to trusted local charities actively providing relief on the ground.
This cause is deeply personal to many of us. These aren’t just Texans in need — they’re our family, friends, and neighbors. Whether you’re from Texas or simply believe in standing with communities in crisis, your support matters.
Here’s how you can help:
RSVP and attend the fundraising event on July 22 - we’d love to see you there.
Make a donation. Preset giving levels are included below, but any amount you feel comfortable contributing is sincerely appreciated.
Spread the word by sharing this message with friends, colleagues, and networks who may want to help.
We appreciate anything you can do to help lift up our Texas family during this difficult time. Thank you.
