When disaster struck the Texas Hill Country, true American patriots answered the call—not with words, but with action.
Led by combat veteran John Rourke and his nonprofit We Fund the Blue Foundation, a rapid-response mission was launched into Center Point, Texas, one of the communities hardest hit by the recent catastrophic flooding.
Rourke and his team delivered a $20,000 donation directly to the Center Point Volunteer Fire Department, helping them begin the costly process of replacing critical equipment lost in the floodwaters. On top of that, a massive $50,000 worth of donated fire equipment—courtesy of National Marine in Houston, Texas—was delivered to bolster the town’s emergency readiness for future disasters.
But the mission didn’t stop there.
In partnership with Aqua Beato Water Company, the team delivered 34 pallets of clean canned water—a vital necessity for families and responders dealing with damaged infrastructure and unsafe water conditions.
And in true Texas fashion, they made sure no hero went hungry.
Working alongside Chef & Rancher, Chef Gabriel Fuentes, and Nuri Restaurant, the team cooked and served hot, chef-prepared meals to over 3,000 first responders and volunteers on the ground. Chef & Rancher proudly donated their famous Texas Wagyu beef, bringing a taste of home and gratitude to those who have given so much in this time of crisis.
A special thanks goes to Nate Albers of DMG Global for his generous $10,000 donation, which helped make this mission possible.
“The floodwaters may have washed away homes and vehicles, but it didn’t wash away their American spirit. That is alive and well in the great state of Texas,” said Rourke. “We’re proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the heroes of Center Point and show them that they’re not alone.”
The We Fund the Blue Foundation continues to make waves across America, supporting law enforcement, first responders, veterans, and communities in crisis. From the southern border to Guantánamo Bay, to disaster zones like the wildfires in California and the toxic train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, their work stands as a beacon of what it means to serve selflessly.
And in the words of Scripture, the heart behind this mission could not be clearer:
Isaiah 6:8 – “I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?’ Then I said, ‘Here am I! Send me.’”
