H-E-B
As the wildfires displace hundreds of people from their homes, H-E-B is supporting evacuees and emergency first responders by sending the H-E-B Mobile Kitchen to the area and donating much needed meals, water and ice to evacuees and those working to put an end to the fires. H-E-B plans to launch a disaster relief donation campaign for Austin-area stores to send relief through the Red Cross to the impacted areas all across Central Texas. Customers will have the opportunity to add a donation of $1, $3 or $5 to their total grocery bill when they check out, or at the Business Center. One hundred percent of the donations will go to the American Red Cross and its emergency relief efforts in Central Texas. Additionally, H-E-B will donate $50,000 to the Red Cross to help the communities of Bastrop, Steiner, Spicewood and others impacted by the fires.
