The funds for the Hurricane Harvey Challenge will go to the Red Cross and Salvation Army.
Texas has been drenched with over 30 inches of rain since Harvey made landfall on Friday evening, “leaving at least 300,000 people without power, and causing damage that authorities predict will take years to fix.”
The current death toll is unknown, but The New York Times has reported at least five deaths in the aftermath of the hurricane.
