We’ve also created an online resource page with mental health, financial recovery, and SBA loan application guidance. Our team is coordinating upcoming workshops to assist business owners directly with disaster loan applications and recovery planning.
In Kind Donations
In-Kind Donation to Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country Flood Relief Fund, employees are volunteering with City of San Antonio Animal Care Services.
Eco Kids Club is a nonprofit organization that empowers children and families to become environmental leaders through sustainable living and climate action. We educate and inspire the next generation to lead by example in the fight against climate change.
In response to the recent environmental catastrophe in the Texas Hill Country, our team is actively working with the community to provide support and relief. We have raised funds, collected emergency supplies, and delivered them to the Army, City West Church and Ingram to assist affected families.
Currently, we are receiving donations to bring in expert engineers and apply advanced technology and research to help locate missing persons. We are collaborating with international professionals, and we recently met with local law enforcement to support the investigation. Our goal is to continue fundraising in order to work with specialists in each field and deliver real, accurate results that bring hope and solutions to those in need.
