In an effort to help Texas flooding victims, the organization is accepting donations for its Kerr County Flood Relief Fund, which its website says will “support nonprofit organizations, first responder agencies, and local governments actively involved in response, relief, and recovery efforts.”

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump will traveled to Texas on Friday to tour the damage left behind by devastating flooding over the July 4th weekend.

A small Texas town that recorded no deaths in last weekend’s flood disaster had recently upgraded its emergency alert system — the kind of setup state, county and federal officials

FEMA records obtained by NBC 5 Investigates show that Kerr County officials did not use FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert & Warning System to send warnings with safety instructions to all mobile phones in the affected area during critical hours as the flooding began on July 4.

The Community Foundation says it will announce a major milestone in the response to its Kerr County Flood Relief Fund and the first round of grant recipients.

In the last nine years, federal funding for a system has been denied to the county as it contends with a tax base hostile to government overspending.
