The Minnesota Vikings are donating $500,000 to help with rescue and recovery efforts from the devastating floods in Texas, the team announced on Wednesday.
"We are deeply saddened by the continued devastation and loss of life in the Texas Hill Country and can't imagine the pain so many are experiencing. We are praying for peace for the families who have lost a loved one and strength for those who continue to risk their lives leading the rescue and recovery effort," a statement from the Wilf Family said.
CNN reports that at least 150 people are still missing in Kerr County from the floods, and 119 people are confirmed dead. Among those are people who were attending Camp Mystic, a youth camp. At least 27 people who were at the camp have died.
The Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans, and NFL Foundation also donated a combined $1.5 million to the communities impacted by the floods.
'Our hearts are broken' - Kansas City Chiefs' Tavia Hunt mourns death of 9-year-old relative in Texas floods
The Texas floods left devastation in their wake, and it has specifically affected the owner of the Kansas City Chiefs' family. Clark Hunt's wive, Tavia Hunt, revealed that a member of their family passed away.
Janie Hunt, who was only nine years old, was one of the campers at Camp Mystic.
"Our hearts are broken by the devastation from the floods in Wimberley and the tragic loss of so many lives – including a precious little Hunt cousin, along with several friend’s little girls," Tavia wrote in an Instagram post. "How do we trust a God who is supposed to be good, all knowing and all powerful, but who allows such terrible things to happen – even to children?"
"That is a sacred and tender question — and one the Bible doesn’t shy away from. Scripture is filled with the cries of those whose hearts have been shattered, who still wrestle to trust the same God they believe allowed the pain," she continued.
Fox News adds that Janie is the great-granddaughter of William Herbert Hunt, who was the brother of Clark's father Lamar Hunt.
