Miranda Lambert and Parker McCollum‘s “Band Together Texas” has began making donations using the $8.5 million raised during the event earlier this year.

The Central Texas Community Foundation will be gifted $8 million, including a $1 million allocation to the Concho County Community Foundation. Meanwhile, the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country will receive over $650,000, with resources designated to Habitat for Humanity’s “Home for the Holidays” initiative.

“These funds are more than numbers – they’re lifelines for families still recovering from this year’s floods,” shares Lambert. “We worked closely with state officials and local partners to identify where the need is greatest and ensure that every dollar supports meaningful recovery.”

“It has been amazing to see Texans, and even folks outside of Texas, come together in such a huge way,” adds McCollum. “The money raised will go a long way in helping our home recover.”

Counties with the most impact from the flooding will be prioritized for donations including Travis, Williamson, Burnet, Kerr, Concho and Tom Green to help housing, infrastructure and community rebuilding.
