Following catastrophic flooding in Kerrville and surrounding areas of Central Texas that has resulted in at least 90 fatalities, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis directed the deployment of three swiftwater rescue teams from the Florida Division of Emergency Management through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) to support Texas in rescue and recovery operations. Florida has pledged additional assistance as needed. Texas Governor Greg Abbott expressed gratitude for Florida's support, including the deployment of rescue teams and K-9 units. Amid the ongoing relief efforts, authorities and organizations including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the FBI have issued warnings to the public about fraudulent schemes and scams exploiting the generosity of donors. Multiple media outlets and officials have provided guidance on how to donate safely and effectively to trusted charities aiding flood victims. Local businesses in Central Texas, including restaurants and bars, are also contributing by donating profits to relief efforts. The collective response underscores a coordinated effort to support the affected communities while cautioning donors to verify the legitimacy of charitable organizations.
