<div class="post-body   share-push clearfix"><p>Tourism Cares and the Texas Travel Industry Association have
launched the Hurricane Harvey Tourism Recovery Fund to assist coastal communities
in recovering from the storm.

</p><p>The fund will focus on restoring damaged attractions and
tourism nonprofits, like monuments and visitor centers; provide support for
nonprofit organizations through technical assistance and skilled volunteering
programs; and make other need-based investments, which could include marketing
and communications support, volunteer management training and disaster
mitigation and planning.</p><p>David Teel, president and CEO of the Texas Travel Industry
Association, said in that destinations like Beaumont, Port
Aransas, Rockport and Fulton will benefit the most.</p><p>"They are dependent on tourism and were also the
hardest hit," he said. "They'll need the most help to bounce back."</p><p>Millions of visitors make their way to Texas' Gulf Coast
each year, where destination experiences generate 170,000 tourism jobs, many
now at risk.</p><p>The Texas Travel Industry Association will assess local
needs while Tourism Cares will administer the fund, provide its expertise in
disaster recovery and engage the nationwide travel industry.</p><p>Donations can be made online <a href="http://www.tourismcares.org/harvey" title="www.tourismcares.org/harvey">www.tourismcares.org/harvey</a>, by
check made out to Hurricane Harvey Tourism Recovery Fund and sent to Tourism
Cares, 20 Vernon St., Norwood, Mass., 02062, or by donating securities.</p><p>Any questions can be directed to harvey@tourismcares.org.</p><p>"We can make the greatest difference by giving together
with our industry, for our industry -- especially in times of crisis,"
Tourism Cares CEO Mike Rea said in a statement. "We will leverage not just
our donations but also our expertise and influence, and we will share our
stories and lessons throughout the industry."</p></div>
