INDIANAPOLIS — (July 29, 2025) The Renaissance Foundation, established by Renaissance Life and Health Insurance Company of America, announced it has donated $25,000 to the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to support recovery efforts following the devastating flash floods that swept through Texas Hill Country beginning July 4. Grants from the Fund will aid impacted communities including Boerne, Hunt, Ingram, Kerrville, Center Point and Comfort.

“The scope of this tragedy is heartbreaking. Our thoughts are with those who have lost loved ones and are still searching for missing family members,” said Diana Steinhoff, President and CEO of Renaissance. “Natural disasters remind us of our shared humanity and responsibility to help one another. Renaissance is honored to contribute to these critical relief efforts, and we remain committed to supporting communities where our members, employees and partners live and work.”

To assist those affected, the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country will distribute grants from the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to vetted nonprofit partners actively providing rescue, relief, clean-up, repair and long-term recovery services. The Foundation is committed to
directing resources to trusted organizations, first responder agencies and local governments working on the front lines.

“The generosity we’ve seen from across Texas and beyond has been nothing short of extraordinary,” said Austin Dickson, Chief Executive Officer of the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country. “Every contribution, including this one from the Renaissance Foundation, directly supports the people, businesses and first responders working to rebuild. Together, we’re helping families restore their lives and strengthen the Hill Country’s path to recovery.”

In the early weeks following the disaster, the Community Foundation has received more than $30 million for the Kerr County Relief Fund and announced an initial $5 million in emergency grants to be allocated across four priority areas of community need: support for individuals and families; support for local businesses; support for first responders; and support for crisis response. Every dollar makes a difference — helping families rebuild, supporting small businesses and strengthening the community’s resilience.

In addition to supporting community relief efforts, Renaissance also prioritizes the well-being of its members. Through its partnership with Bree Health, Renaissance offers an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) as part of its group life insurance coverage. This program provides 24/7 access to licensed counselors for emotional support and crisis counseling, as well as self-guided tools and coping strategies to help employees manage the emotional and practical impact of disasters and other life challenges.
