Deemed the Applause for the Cause concert, the Aug. 28 event was organized by country musician and Texas native Robert Earl Keen and sponsored by Buc-ee's.
Notable guest musicians included Tyler Childers, Miranda Lambert, Ryan Bingham, Jack Ingram and more.
Keen announced on Facebook that the concert raised over $3 million in proceeds that went directly toward the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund.
Additionally, Keen held another concert in nearby Helotes at the John T. Floore Country Store over Labor Day weekend that supported continued relief efforts in the Hill Country.
“I’m so proud of this community and beyond thankful to everyone who came out, gave and stood with us,” Keen said.
Country legend George Strait also held a flood benefit concert in the San Antonio area in Boerne, called Strait to the Heart, on July 27.
The singer announced the event raised $6.25 million that went to flood victims of the Hill Country.
Lend a hand
The relief efforts aren’t over, either—head to the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country’s website to donate to the Kerr County Flood Relief fund and more to support the region’s continued rebuilding efforts.
