Sandy Creek Flood Relief Needs Your Help

$5M for Sandy Creek Flood Relief Cleanup and Rebuilding Efforts.

When catastrophic flooding struck Sandy Creek in Leander, TX, we didn’t wait. We moved. Fast.

On July 11, I arrived in the disaster zone and assembled a crew of experienced operators. Within hours, we deployed 10 pieces of heavy equipment across three hard-hit areas to clear debris, open access, and support search and recovery missions for the missing and deceased.

These were volunteer-led, unfunded efforts — coordinated with:

• Local fire personnel

• Ranch managers

• Neighborhood volunteers

• Contractors - donating equipment and time.

We’ve cut through miles of brush, pulled vehicles from trees, and carved out paths to homes buried in debris. Many of the missing persons have been found, but there are still families seeking closure to this tragic event.

But we’re at a standstill without funds.

We need your help to raise $5,000,000 to:

• Rent more equipment (skid steers, mulchers, dozers, chainsaws, large excavators)

• Cover fuel, maintenance, and parts

• Provide room and board for volunteer crews

• Assist with ongoing search and recovery efforts.

• Assist with ongoing debris removal efforts.

We are not state, FEMA, or nonprofit funded. We’re just a crew of Texans who said: “We’ll do it ourselves if we have to.”

The images on this page are real — taken on-site last week during our work. These aren’t news clips. This is us, on the ground, making a difference. But the need is growing, and we need help to keep going.

Upon completion of SAR & clean up operations, any remaining funds will be donated towards rebuilding efforts within the Sandy Creek communities in Leander, Tx.

Every share, every dollar, every prayer helps.

Thank you for backing the ones who showed up when it mattered most.
