Texas neighbors, United Cajun Navy deliver truckload of flood relief supplies to Liberty Hill
LIBERTY HILL, Texas (KXAN) — Outside Operation Liberty Hill, the doors to a semi trailer flew open to the sound of cheers from dozens of volunteers. The haul was three-pallets tall, and carried from Kemah, Texas by members of the United Cajun Navy, a nonprofit relief group well-versed in flood recovery.
The haul was collected by members of the Kemah Police Department on the Texas Gulf Coast, roughly four hours from Williamson County, and trucked in by the United Cajun Navy, a nonprofit disaster relief organization founded in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
Flash flooding claimed more than 100 lives in Central Texas. Here's what we know about the victims
Operation Liberty Hill will distribute the supplies to anyone in need of everyday essentials, or other services like housing, and counseling assistance.
Executive Director Susan Baker said it was heartwarming to see neighbors near and far come together to help flood victims.
'That's the most important part of today is letting people know this is a place they can come from help. There is hope,' Baker said.
Detective Alonso Soza said his department started collecting donations Monday morning, but by that afternoon needed a second container to hold the overwhelming number of donations.
Baker said Operation Liberty Hill is open to any and all flood victims that need supplies. The organization is also collecting donations for flood recovery through it's website.
