United Sikhs Bring Aid And Hope To Flood-Hit Texans

India-West Staff Reporter

DALLAS, TX — In flood-battered Kerr County, where homes have been damaged and families displaced, one humanitarian group has quietly become a lifeline. The disaster response team from United Sikhs is providing much more than supplies—they’re bringing timely comfort, warmth, and hope.

Volunteers from the global Sikh humanitarian organization have fanned out across affected areas, delivering hot meals, non-perishable groceries, clothes, hygiene kits, medical supplies, cleaning products, and even baby formula. As floodwaters recede, their presence has become a symbol of compassion in action.

At the Hunt United Methodist Church, now serving as a local relief hub, one moment captured the spirit of the mission. Susie, a volunteer coordinator at the church, recalled how a young mother approached her looking for baby milk. “I looked around and we had none,” she said. “Then, just two minutes later, the United Sikhs team walked in—carrying exactly what we needed. Milk.”

Susie called it “truly amazing” — a moment of need met with near-miraculous timing.

For Gurvinder Singh, United Sikhs’ International Humanitarian Aid Director, this kind of story is not uncommon. “We don’t always know what people will need until we arrive,” he said. “But somehow, the right things find their way into our hands. That’s the spirit of seva — selfless service.”

Since arriving in the region, the United Sikhs team has distributed aid at shelters, veteran camps, Red Cross stations, and churches throughout Kerr County and nearby communities. With each delivery, they’ve offered not just supplies, but also the presence of a helping hand at the exact moment it was needed most.
