Tri-State schools collecting Hurricane Harvey donations at football games

As Hurricane Harvey slammed into Texas' Gulf Coast, Tri-State organizations stepped up to help those affected by the storm stay safe. Harvey, a Category 4 storm when it made landfall, brought damaging wind and rain across the Gulf Coast, causing up to $40 billion in damage and potentially leaving many vulnerable Texans in need of basic supplies such as food, clothing and shelter. Flooding inundated the Houston area, where thousands thousands of people climbed to rooftops or higher ground.
