We are grieving, again. We’re absolutely devastated to see and experience the latest climate catastrophe here in Texas Hill Country and South Central Texas. Our love, solidarity and rage goes out to all those impacted by the disastrous floods still surging.
We’re launching a relief fund for sex workers who are directly impacted by the floods, the jotform is password protected and encrypted.
Applications open today, Monday, July 7th and will remain open until Friday, July 11th.

We are a tiny formation. We have limited funds. If you want to help us distribute emergency funds, please send gifts via Venmo or CashApp (@SxHxCollective & $SxHxCollective). If you need to send money via PayPal or Zelle, please use our contact form and let us know!
This tragedy was ABSOLUTELY PREVENTABLE and the direct result of organized abandonment and climate catastrophe. We’ve seen government officials ignore and neglect our waterways researchers, Indigenous communities, disaster preparedness experts and infrastructure advocates for decades–the recent cuts at the state and federal level are only the most recent acts of violence against rural and hyper-vulnerable peoples. They blame everyone but themselves when disaster strikes. We know who keeps us safe–it’s our neighbors, and often those who are also living in precarity who show up and rise to our aid.
