Search and rescue efforts continued Sunday as the death toll from catastrophic flash flooding in Central Texas grew to 69 people overnight, including at least 21 children.
The vast majority of the deaths, 59, have occurred in Kerr County, where rescuers are still searching for 11 girls reported missing after flooding at Camp Mystic, an all-girls summer camp. The bodies of three North Texas girls who attended the camp are among those recovered.

How to help with Central Texas flood relief
In response to questions about what people can do to help the area recover from the deadly flood, Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha said the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, a 501(c)(3) charity serving the Texas Hill Country, has established a relief fund to support vetted local response, relief and recovery efforts.
Organizers said all donations go directly to organizations working on the front lines of the July 4 flooding emergency. All donations are tax-deductible, and you will receive a receipt for your gift.
