United Way reinstalls Disaster Relief Fund

United Way of Hays and Caldwell Counties has reinstated the disaster relief fund to assist those affected by the COVID-19 virus, particularly economically, in Hays and Caldwell counties. “We are working with our partners to distribute these funds directly to those in need throughout Hays and Caldwell Counties in the coming days, weeks and months,” a press release from United Way said. “There is not currently a process for the public to apply for these funds. We ask that members of the public be patient as we raise the critical dollars to assist as many of our community members as we can.”
