Heavy rains in southern Texas have caused dangerous flooding that locals are calling the worst in 20 years. More than 75 people have already been rescued from rising floodwaters, and the situation continues to develop. Our Relief Team is mobilizing to make sure first responders and impacted families have the food and water they need.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time our teams have responded in Hill Country. One year ago, WCK served meals to first responders and families after flooding sent the Guadalupe River to its second-highest level on record. We know these communities\u2014and we are on our way.<\/p>\n<p>This remains a quickly evolving situation.
