$5M Personal Check Made Out to JJ Watt’s Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund
Some companies have been accused of price gouging Hurricane Harvey victims, while others are stepping up to help out anyway they can. H-E-B has gone above and beyond. They donated $100,000 and sent out mobile kitchens and disaster relief units to the Texas coast. H-E-B made it possible for their customers to donate towards the Hurricane Harvey relief efforts at checkout lanes. H-E-B doesn't just have a corporate office that steps up to help, they have a leader who takes action. H-E-B's CEO Charles Butt is personally donating 5 Million dollars towards JJ Watt's Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund.
Charles Butt's 5 Million dollar check may be the biggest personal donation towards Hurricane Harvey so far. Watt had started the Houston flood relief fund with $100,000 in mind. Several celebrities have stepped up and donated. Miley Cyrus wrote a check for half a million, Drake wrote a $200,000, and New Houston Rockets' Chris Paul donated $75,000. As of Wednesday morning JJ Watt's Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund has raised over 22 Million! 18 H-E-B stores were closed due to Hurricane Harvey, instead of H-E-B counting their losses they rallied and found a way to make a difference. Clearly H-E-B has a CEO who isn't a boss, he's a leader who invests in our communities. Charles Butt, you're a hero!
