Houston sources have stated that Indian-Americans in Texas, especially the youth, are helping hundreds of people affected by catastrophic floods caused due to Hurricane Harvey by giving food, shelter and medical assistance. Sources have stated that though they themselves are affected, the Indian-Americans have formed numerous volunteer groups by using Facebook and WhatsApp to communicate details about the families affected in each locality.



Meanwhile Temples, Gurdwaras, mosques and several restaurants have opened their doors to provide shelter to the victims. Indian restaurants have been reaching out to people with free food and providing water, medical supplies, toiletries, baby food and cleaning supplies.
