BlackRock is devastated by the loss of life and damage caused by the recent flooding in Texas. Our hearts are broken for the families that have lost loved ones and the communities impacted by these events. We continue to monitor recovery efforts, and we express our deepest gratitude to the local search and rescue teams that continue to search for those who are still missing.
To support the region in its rescue and relief efforts, The BlackRock Foundation is donating $500,000 to the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country.
Additionally, we have initiated a 2-to-1 donation match for employees contributing to the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, the American Red Cross, and Team Rubicon.
