Lest you forgot, Texas is a HUGE state.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2016\/04\/19\/us\/houston-texas-flooding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CNN.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the recent April floods have killed 7 people, flooded 1,000 homes, and caused more than $5 billion in damage. This doesn\u2019t even count the thousands of people who were\u00a0displaced as a result of the floods, having lost their belongings, their homes, and their cars.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>How the Floods Affected HostGator Headquarters<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a Texas-based company with offices in Austin and Houston, HostGator witnessed the devastation of the recent flooding in Houston first hand. While our Houston office was not damaged and the majority of our employees did not experience severe damage, others were affected by the disaster. That April weekend, many of our Houston employees couldn\u2019t make it in to work, let alone out of their homes, so we had long waiting times on support as our Austin office did what they could to address issues as quickly as possible despite being down to 30% of our normal capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Senior Developer Eris Caffee lost her home and car. Since then, she\u2019s been temporarily living with family while she travels on foot to and from her home\u00a0to salvage her belongings and care for her animals. Development Manager Austin Naremore set up a gofundme campaign to help her get her own place and replace what she lost. In under 14 hours, Eris&#8217;s\u00a0colleagues, friends, and the broader HostGator and Endurance International team rallied to raise $7500, surpassing the initial goal of $5,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Ways You Can Help Houston Flood Victims<\/h2>\n<p>When disaster strikes, you can help survivors by volunteering or by donating money, supplies, or blood.
