We’re still in Texas, over 8 months after the 4th of July Floods

Since the July 4, 2025 Texas floods, All Hands & Hearts has been supporting long-term recovery in Hill Country in Central Texas, helping hundreds of families rebuild homes and restore their communities along the Guadalupe River.

Imagine coming back to a home that doesn’t exist anymore.

Robert and Donna weren’t in town when the Texas floods happened. But when they returned, they found a scene of total devastation: their house was washed away and pushed into a nearby tree, and a cabin on their property had been carried into a neighbor’s yard. 

Now, over eight months later, family photos lost in the flood are still being found scattered in unexpected places.

Our team stepped in to help prepare their property with a new foundation, creating a starting point for them to rebuild. Through partnerships with other local organizations, they also received essential items like furniture to begin putting their home back together.

They never told us what to do, they just asked us what we needed,” Robert shared. Donna added, “We’ve met some very sweet, loving people through AH&H for sure.

We have been working hard in Texas since the floods happened on July 4, 2025, and we’re not slowing down. As we continue to approach a year since the floods, we’re committed to the communities along the Guadalupe River, continuing to support their long-term recovery every step of the way.

Right now, we are supporting 15 households, with more homes being assessed each week. We’ve recently completed another home, with several more currently in progress and additional projects starting soon.

We’ve also been working closely with other organizations on the ground, forming a collaborative group to better share resources and support families with unmet needs. By coming together, we’re able to reach more people and respond more effectively.

To support not just families, but the wider ecosystem as a whole, our team also joined local partners to help restore the surrounding environment, harvesting and planting thousands of native trees as part of a community-wide effort to restore the Guadalupe area.
