The funds come from last month’s “Strait to the Heart” benefit concert, hosted by George Strait and Estancia Estates Founder Tom Cusick.
The checks will help families who suffered severe storm damage or lost their homes during the devastating flooding.
“These checks will help you piece your lives back together, and there’s more help on the way,” said Governor Abbott.
