John,
It's hard to miss the heartbreaking images and stories out of Texas -- but like always, when the system fails and leaves our people behind,
we keep us safe.
If you want to help get resources to folks fast, we recommend using Venmo to send money directly to these mutual aid groups in Texas:

Don't have Venmo? We've also set up an ActBlue page to split a donation across nearly 30 Texas organizations dedicated to supporting folks who are experiencing homelessness or hunger. You can select which organizations you'd like to support or just split a donation equally.
Pitch in whatever you can here -- 100% of donations will go to the charities (not Black Lives Matter).
Can't pitch in? Please circulate this Linktree from MOVE Texas, which is working to keep comprehensive guides updated (in English and Spanish) for folks to find and contribute resources:

The lack of leadership from #FledCruz and Gov. Abbott is leaving our people vulnerable. But we can step up where they've failed.
In love and solidarity,
Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation
