                <p class="p1">The Walt Disney Company and Houston ABC affiliate KTRK jointly announced that they have pledged $1 million to the Red Cross to go toward Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.</p>
<p class="p1">In addition, Disney is matching, dollar for dollar, employee donations to the American Red Cross and other organizations involved in Harvey relief efforts.</p>
<p class="p1">&ldquo;Our hearts go out to everyone in the devastating path of this historic storm,&rdquo; Disney CEO Bob Iger said in a statement. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s hard to fully appreciate the impact, in part because it isn&rsquo;t over yet. But we know thousands of people have lost everything and now face the daunting challenge of putting their lives and communities back together, and we&rsquo;re using our unique resources and reach to help those in need.&rdquo;</p>

So I really hope people know &hellip; you know my grandma is sitting here and my mom&rsquo;s here and I go home to my seven dogs and if I didn&rsquo;t have that anymore &ndash; it would just be really hard. So I am really happy to help in any way I can.
