Today, along with our MLS partners, my brother and I are humbled to support those directly assisting the victims of this unimaginable tragedy,” Hunt said. “In the wake of such sadness, we are awed by the hearts of our fellow Texans, and we are grateful for the true community leaders – in boats, helicopters, or trucks filled with food – who are showing up for their neighbors in need.” The $500,000 donation will go toward immediate response needs as well as long-term trauma care, the news release said.
