The Houston Texans star tweeted Wednesday that he hoped to reach $10 million, and by midday Thursday, his YouCaring fundraiser had already spiked past $11 million.
</p><p itemprop="articleBody">
That amount included a $200,000 donation from rapper <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/topics/entertainment/actors/drake-take-care-grammy.htm" id="ramplink_Drake_" target="_blank">Drake</a> and a $1 million donation from <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/topics/entertainment/actresses/ellen-degeneres.htm" id="ramplink_Ellen DeGeneres_" target="_blank">Ellen DeGeneres</a> and Walmart, both of which were posted Thursday.

"I can't say thank you enough. Celebrities, musicians, athletes, kids with their lemonade stands and people hosting fundraisers, businesses donating -- I cannot thank everybody enough," Watt said in a video. "My focus is very much on getting this money directly back to the people."

"All of the money will go to the J.J. Watt Foundation, a certified 501c3, and then distributed from there," a spokesperson for Watt wrote to ABC News.
</p><p itemprop="articleBody">
Watt, 28, launched his fundraiser on Sunday, and at the time hoped to raise $200,000. He has said that the money will go toward purchasing basic supplies including food, water and clothing, which he and his teammates will distribute in and around the Houston area.
</p><p itemprop="articleBody">
Currently, he said, there are semi-trucks being filled with supplies which are set to be delivered imminently.

"It’s unbelievable," Watt said on "<a href="http://abcnews.go.com/topics/entertainment/tv/good-morning-america.htm" id="ramplink_Good Morning America_" target="_blank">Good Morning America</a>" Tuesday about the response he received. "The biggest part of it all is being able to see the power of what can happen when people come together. I think that’s the beauty of the people in this country: When they see somebody going through a tough time they all rally around. It’s pretty incredible and we’re going to be able to do a lot of great things to help rebuild this city, and we’re trying to raise as much as we can because we know these recovery efforts are going to be massive."
