Purina Provides $25,000 to Support Communities Impacted by Central Texas Flooding and Donates Pet Food to Disaster Relief Efforts

ST. LOUIS, July 8, 2025 – In the wake of the catastrophic flooding in central Texas, Purina is providing a $25,000 grant to Greater Good Charities, a global nonprofit, to support the organization’s disaster relief efforts across the region. Purina’s donation will help fund essential humanitarian and pet supplies for communities impacted by the floods. In addition to providing this grant, Purina is working with Greater Good Charities to provide several thousand pounds of Purina pet food for disaster relief.  

Torrential rains during the early morning hours of Friday, July 4 led to the rapid surge of the Guadalupe River, causing flash floods across the Texas Hill Country region. The flooding has claimed more than 100 lives and left hundreds more displaced.  

"Our hearts are with the families and communities experiencing irreparable loss due to the devastating flooding across central Texas," said Kim Beardslee, Director of Community Affairs. "Purina has a long history of supporting people and pets in the wake of natural disasters, and we’re proud to partner with Greater Good Charities to support their life-saving work.”

Greater Good Charities is on the ground and collaborating with local agencies in Texas to provide emergency aid to people and pets. The global nonprofit is deploying essential supplies to those who have been displaced and to community partners assisting with the relief efforts. Anyone who would like to learn more about, and donate to, Greater Good Charities’ efforts, can do so here.

In times of natural disaster, Purina provides timely support to people and pets in need by working with its nonprofit partners to deliver pet food, litter and funding to areas that are being impacted. To learn more about causes Purina supports, visit www.purina.com/about-purina/partnerships.
