Josh Weathers Raises Over $335,000 for Texas Hill Country Flood Relief

Texas country artist Josh Weathers organized a virtual benefit concert and auction to support victims of the devastating flash floods in South-central Texas, which caused significant loss of life and damage. Originally planning a small livestream, Weathers and his team expanded the event to a full concert at their home church, featuring original songs and covers, and included a silent auction with items such as vacations and sports tickets. The event raised over $335,000, more than double the initial goal of $150,000, with all proceeds going to nonprofits aiding flood victims. Weathers expressed surprise at the generosity, attributing the success to Texans' strong community spirit and their care for each other during crises. He plans to collaborate with local authorities to ensure the funds are directed to where they are most needed. The concert served both as a fundraiser and a source of comfort and solidarity for those affected by the floods.
