Los Angeles Comes Together to Support Texas Flood Victims

Langer’s Deli to Host “Help Texas Day” – Saturday, July 12, 2025

LOS ANGELES — In response to the devastating flooding in Texas, Norm Langer, owner of Los Angeles’ iconic Langer’s Delicatessen-Restaurant, is calling on Angelenos to join him in a day of action and giving.

On Saturday, July 12, Langer’s will host “Help Texas Day,” a one-day, community-wide event to raise support for families affected by the tragedy. Donations collected will benefit the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country — a trusted nonprofit already providing relief on the ground.

“As a parent and grandparent, my heart is broken,” said Langer. “I’ve spoken with staff and customers all week — everyone wants to help but doesn’t know how. This is our chance to come together and make a real difference.” Langer’s will make it easy for everyone to participate:
