H-E-B is expanding its flood relief efforts across the Texas Hill Country and Central Texas, delivering essential supplies and supporting recovery for communities devastated by historic flooding.
The Texas grocery chain has partnered with the Red Cross, local officials, and first responders to distribute water, snacks, and recovery cleaning kits to residents affected by the storm. Pop-up distribution sites have been set up in Leander at Round Mountain Baptist Church, in Burnet at the Train Depot parking lot, and at Liberty Hill Middle School. Supplies will be available daily, with hours ranging from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and will continue as long as needed.
“We hold compassion and strength for everyone who has been impacted, and we remain committed to offer unwavering support to our communities,” H-E-B said in a statement.
In Leander, volunteers are also providing meals to rescue workers and first responders while distributing diapers, wipes, baby food, blankets, and household items to families. No sign-up is required, and all residents are welcome to receive assistance.
H-E-B has also deployed aid to San Angelo, Marble Falls, and Kerr County, where the flooding has been particularly severe. Videos on social media have captured caravans of H-E-B trucks traveling to affected areas to deliver critical supplies.
As of July 7, at least 104 people have died due to the floods across Central Texas, including 84 in Kerr County, with several children among the victims. More than 850 people have been rescued, and search efforts continue for missing individuals, including campers and a counselor from Camp Mystic.
H-E-B has a long history of responding quickly during disasters in Texas, offering both immediate aid and ongoing support to help communities recover in the aftermath. The company states that it will remain on-site in the hardest-hit areas to address emerging needs as recovery efforts continue.
