As the historic cold snap continues to disrupt Texans' habits and has already claimed 38 lives in the United States, Beyoncé has decided to come to the aid of her native state.
The star's foundation, BeyGOOD, has joined forces with the Adidas brand and a local charity, Bread of Life, to deliver $ 1,000 in emergency aid to families who need it most.
The foundation has posted on Twitter the information you need to apply via a disaster relief form.
Bread of Life is also accepting donations, which will go to storm victims, whether from Texas or elsewhere.
“Beygood and Adidas are working with Bread of Life to provide emergency assistance to those affected by the winter storm.
If you are in Texas or any state affected by this storm, you can request assistance, ”the post read.
Panic everywhere
Beyoncé herself relayed the message as a story on her Instagram account.
This is not the first time that BeyGOOD has been involved in specifically helping the people of the Houston area, where the singer was born.
Last year, for example, she announced an initiative to support Texans affected by Covid-19.
According to experts, temperatures are expected to rise slightly over the weekend, but many residents remain without electricity or drinking water, or even without water at all.
Variety says authorities are asking the 13 million Texans who are lucky enough to still have water to boil it before drinking it.
Texas Governor Ted Cruz, for his part, found himself under fire after being caught leaving for Cancun, Mexico, in the midst of the crisis.
After returning home immediately, he admitted having made "a mistake".
