The Houston Texans announced a $500,000 commitment Saturday to support those affected by the deadly floods in the Texas Hill Country.
As of noon ET on Saturday, rescuers were still searching for more than two dozen children from a girls' camp after a devastating flood killed at least 27 people.
A wall of water swept over the area after heavy rainfall saw the Guadalupe River rise 26 feet in less than an hour.
'We are heartbroken by the loss and damage that our neighbors in the Texas Hill Country have endured,' the McNair family, owners of the Texans, said in a statement posted on X. 'We are especially devastated to hear about the children who are still missing and we are praying that they are reunited with their families soon. Our hearts will remain with everyone affected and in addition to our donation, we will continue to support the search, rescue and recovery efforts in the coming weeks.'
According to officials in Kerrville, Texas, some 27 people remained missing from a Christian summer camp situated along the Guadalupe River.
