<p class="p1">The destruction caused by Hurricane Harvey has already spurred <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/disney-donates-hurricane-harvey-relief-efforts-1033600" target="_blank">multiple, sizeable donations from individual stars and companies</a> like Disney, Apple, Amazon and Telemundo. Disney also presented a &quot;Day of Giving,&quot; last Thursday, during which its various channels raised money for the Red Cross.&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p1">Houston native Beyonce had <a href="https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7942385/beyonce-pledges-support-hurricane-harvey-victims" target="_blank">previously said</a> she and her team were working on a plan to &quot;help as many as we can.&quot;</p>
<p class="p1">Harvey struck Texas on Aug. 25 as a Category 4 hurricane. Despite weakening to a tropical storm, Harvey produced 52 inches of rain, causing devastating floods in Houston and other areas. The storm is blamed for at least 60 deaths.</p>
<p class="p1">Following Hurricane Katrina, in 2005, Hollywood launched a number of fundraising efforts, including NBC&#39;s &quot;Concert for Hurricane Relief,&quot; which aired Sept. 2. That benefit featured such stars as Leonardo DiCaprio, Mike Myers, Hilary Swank, Claire Danes and John Goodman, but is perhaps best remembered for Kanye West&#39;s off-script moment, in which he blasted the government&#39;s response to the disaster, declaring, &quot;George Bush doesn&#39;t care about black people.&quot;</p>
<p class="p1">On Wednesday, the <a href="http://handinhand2017.com/" target="_blank">Hand in Hand website</a> posted a message that the benefit is also prepared to raise money for those affected by the impending Hurricane Irma, a Category 5 storm that is bearing down on Florida.&nbsp;</p>
<p class="p2">Ellen DeGeneres also revealed on her show that she would be participating in the telethon along with <a href="https://www.ellentube.com/video/reese-witherspoon-ellen-joining-forces-for-hurricane-harvey-relief.html" target="_blank">DeGeneres&#39; Wednesday guest Reese Witherspoon</a>. Witherspoon also shared some insights into which stars would be where. She said she would be in Nashville with Blake Shelton and DeGeneres and Winfrey will be part of the L.A. section. Witherspoon said she thinks Beyonce will be hosting in New York.</p>
