Hurricane Helene made landfall late last week and by Tuesday, the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/helene-asheville-north-carolina-c5ff143de63e31bd345066221f5e4d24">Associated Press</a> reported at least 150 deaths across multiple states, including <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/devastating-flooding-from-helene-besets-north-carolinas-asheville-local-death-toll-reaches-30">30 people killed</a> in the county where Asheville, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/north-carolina">North Carolina</a>, is located, and efforts to provide relief to flooded areas were ongoing.
Wallen’s donation is the first major one reported from a celebrity to the hurricane relief efforts, <a href="https://people.com/morgan-wallen-donates-500k-to-red-cross-for-hurricane-helene-relief-8720900?taid=66fb3a97ce81310001b19ec1&amp;utm_campaign=peoplemagazine&amp;utm_content=new&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter.com">People</a> magazine noted.
A <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-hurricane-helene-victims-with-president-trump?modal=donations&amp;tab=top">GoFundMe</a> authorized by former President Donald Trump has also taken in donations to help those affected by the hurricane, with large amounts from singer Kid Rock and UFC’s Dana White.
One post about the donations on X <a href="https://x.com/MJTruthUltra/status/1840894262881218986" target="_blank" rel="noopener">read</a>, “Trump took Matters into his own Hands and Launched a GoFundMe to Help Support those Affected by Hurricane Helene&#8221;&#8230;“Top Donors: Senator Kelly Loeffler $500k, Dan Newlin $100k, Bass Pro shops $100k, Kid Rock $20k. If you’d like to donate, do so here.&#8221;
A description of the GoFundMe reads, “President Donald J. Trump has launched this GoFundMe campaign as an official response for MAGA supporters to offer their financial assistance to their fellow Americans impacted by Hurricane Helene.”
“With so many across the Southeastern U.S. facing challenges after the storm, President Trump is on the ground in communities to see the aftermath firsthand,” it added. “All donations will be directed to help those most affected by Hurricane Helene. Any level of generosity will go a long way for your fellow Americans who are suffering.”
At the time of this publication, the crowd-funded account surpassed its goal of $1,000,000 with more than $3,000,000 and counting.
