Supply Drive Launched for San Angelo Flood Victims

At least 89 lives have been lost due to the catastrophic floods that tore through the Hill Country. Among the most heartbreaking updates is the confirmation of 27 deaths at Camp Mystic, a girls’ summer camp along the Guadalupe River. Ten more campers and staff members remain missing.

Flooding continues to be a major threat throughout the region, and the need for help is only growing.

San Angelo is now facing devastating flooding of its own. Eerie photos show the city almost entirely underwater, and families are in desperate need of supplies. We’re organizing a supply drive to send immediate aid to San Angelo and the surrounding areas.

Here’s what they need most:

• Hygiene items: Toothbrushes, toothpaste, baby wipes, soap, shampoo, deodorant, feminine products, new socks and underwear (all sizes)
• Cleaning supplies: Trash bags, disinfectants, all-purpose cleaners, mops, brooms, gloves, scrub brushes, laundry detergent, dust masks
• Food & baby needs: Non-perishable foods, bottled water, baby formula, diapers, mosquito spray.

SUPPLY DROP-OFF DETAILS

📍 Location: Townsquare Media, 107 N Star Dr.
⏰ Time: 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
