The Dallas Cowboys are following the lead of the Houston Texans amid a disaster in the Lone Star State.
On Saturday, the Texans made a $500,000 pledge to help communities in Central Texas and the Hill Country affected by flooding that hit the region on Friday and Saturday. Per multiple reports, 27 are still missing in Kerr County, and at least 51 have died from flooding over the July 4 weekend holiday.
Kerr County had 800 people needing to be evacuated from the region. A nearby summer camp, Camp Mystic, saw flood waters rise approximately 29 feet from nasty thunderstorms that sent 15 inches of rain their way. Dozens of people are missing who were staying at Camp Mystic during the thunderstorm.
