Kerrville & Surrounding Area Disaster Relief

 
On July 4th, devastating floods swept through Kerrville and surrounding communities in District 5840 as the Guadalupe River surged more than 30 feet—well above major flood stage. Dozens of lives have been lost or displaced. Families are grieving, homes are gone, and the path to recovery will be long.
 

This will not be a quick fix. Recovery is a journey—and we’re here for the long haul. As Rotarians, we understand that disaster relief happens in three phases: respond, recover, and rebuild. We are committed to walking alongside these communities through every stage.
 

💛 Where to Donate

All donations are tax-deductible through the Rotary District 5840 Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Check the side panel for graphics that you can share on your Club website and social media to help with our fundraising efforts.
