Texas HB2746 proposes a pilot program for text-to-donate donations to support local services for homeless individuals and families in large.

HB2746 establishes a pilot program by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs to facilitate donations via text message for local programs aiding homeless individuals and families in municipalities with populations of 285,000 or more. The program aims to simplify the donation process, ensuring donor information confidentiality and setting up a fund for disbursing donations. It mandates that at least 65% of donations go to housing costs, 20% to transportation, 5% to program promotion, and no more than 10% to overhead and administrative costs.
