Sources close to the Duchess confirmed she made a generous donation aimed at supporting displaced families, rescue workers, and rebuilding efforts.

Meghan’s contribution reportedly went to both local charities providing immediate relief and national disaster response organizations coordinating shelter, food, and recovery supplies. Insiders say she was “deeply moved by the heartbreaking images of children, families, and communities torn apart by the floodwaters.”

Her team is also said to be exploring additional ways to support long-term recovery in the hardest-hit areas along the Guadalupe River.
