“It’s heartbreaking to see the devastation in Texas. Text the word HARVEY to 90999 or donate to. Beyonce has already said she is working with her charity to assist those in her home town of Houston. She told the Houston Chronicle: “My heart goes out to my hometown, Houston, and I remain in constant prayer for those affected and for the rescuers who have been so brave and determined to do so much to help.
“I am working closely with my team at BeyGOOD as well as my pastor (Rudy Rasmus at St John’s in downtown Houston) to implement a plan to help as many as we can.” On Monday comedian Kevin Hart announced he was donating $50,000 (£39,000) and called on his friends Dwayne Johnson, Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Jerry Seinfeld and Justin Timberlake to do the same.
He announced his donation saying: “I know a lot of my friends will follow.”
