Miranda Lambert is using her platform to speak out about the floods that have devastated her home state of Texas.
On Saturday, July 5, the country superstar, 41, turned to social media to share her heartbreak over the severe flooding that struck the Lone Star State over the Fourth of July holiday.
In a video posted on her Instagram page, a broken-hearted Lambert said, “Hey y’all. I just want to jump on here and say how devastated we are to hear about the floods in South and Central Texas. I can’t even come up with any words for the loss that everybody’s suffering.”
The “Wranglers” singer and avid pet lover then revealed that she has jumped up to help in the aftermath of the storm through her MuttNation Foundation — a non-profit that she founded with her mother, Bev Lambert, in 2009.
“MuttNation Foundation is working really closely with Kerrville Pets Alive, as we speak to try to get more info and figure out where the needs are to support the pet community and pet owners in this disaster,” Lambert explained of her foundation, which is partnering with the Central Texas-based non-profit organization to help bring aid to Texans and their beloved pets who have been displaced during the storms.
“We will have more info as it goes, but I’ll post everything that I know to post right now,” she continued in her message. “So y’all join with us and try to help out as much as you can, and keep sending prayers, and I’ll keep you posted.”
According to ABC News, heavy rainfall occurred overnight and into the morning hours of July 4th, overtaking parts of Central Texas and leading to “catastrophic flooding” in Kerr County and near the Guadalupe River. As of 7 pm ET on July 5, the death toll had risen to 43 people, including 15 children. Those interested in donating to the MuttNation Foundation to assist in Lambert’s mission to provide aid to victims can visit the organization’s official website here.
