This fund is designed to provide immediate aid to residents and businesses in the hardest-hit areas, which include Kerrville, Boerne, Hunt, Ingram, Center Point, and Comfort. Local organizations involved in rescue, relief, and recovery efforts will be the primary beneficiaries of these funds.
Kubota is collaborating with regional dealers, Ewald Kubota and Texas Ag Equipment, both of which are located in areas severely impacted by the floods. This partnership aims to ensure that recovery efforts are localized and addressed in a timely manner.
In addition to the financial contributions, Kubota is also launching a matching gifts campaign for employees who wish to contribute to the relief efforts. Through this initiative, the company will match employee donations up to an additional $25,000 throughout July.
The Kerr County Flood Relief Fund will work with vetted local organizations to ensure that donations are utilized effectively in providing rescue, relief, and recovery services, as well as flood assistance to the impacted residents and communities.
Various organizations are already participating in the ongoing relief efforts, including the American Red Cross and the Salvation Army, alongside local churches and charities that are actively accepting material and financial donations. These organizations are working together to provide assistance to those in need during this trying time.
Other companies and nonprofits, such as Walmart, DoorDash, and Airbnb, are also lending their support by offering financial contributions, emergency housing, or additional supportive services to help ensure that those affected receive the necessary resources for recovery.
Contributions to the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund are tax-deductible, and receipts will be provided for all donations, making it easier for individuals and businesses to participate in the recovery efforts.
The recent flooding has highlighted the spirit of community and collaboration among businesses, organizations, and individuals coming together to aid their neighbors. Kubota’s initiative serves as a significant example of how corporate responsibility can play a key role in alleviating the hardships faced by the residents of Central Texas during this unexpected crisis.
