Comedic actor Kevin Hart took to Instagram on Monday (August 28) to implore his celebrity friends to be a part of his Hurricane Harvey Relief Challenge, including JAY-Z, Beyoncé, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle.
“I’m calling this the Hurricane Harvey Relief Challenge,” Hart wrote in the caption. “Lets go @therock @beyonce @chrisrock Jay Z Dave Chappelle @jerryseinfeild @iamsteveharveytv @justintimberlake #HurricaneHarveyReliefChallenge #prayforhouston …..I am getting a link together now people. Help me help Houston.”

According to TMZ, the Kardashian family has also donated $500,000 to relief efforts, which has been distributed to The Red Cross and The Salvation Army.
Meanwhile, Lil B is donating verses to any artist affected by Hurricane Harvey, but it’s unclear if it was prompted by Hart’s plea.

It’s been days since Hurricane Harvey made landfall in Houston and other cities in Texas, but flooding in the area continues as more rain heads to the state.
In addition to The Red Cross, Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund and the Houston Food Bank are among the organizations also accepting donations.
