KPRC 2 and Telemundo Houston team up for Harvey relief
KPRC-TV Channel 2 and Telemundo Houston team up with the American Red Cross to help the countless people and communities affected by the destruction of Hurricane Harvey.
“We are proud to partner with the Red Cross once again on raising critical resources to help the Houston and Gulf Coast region in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey,” says KPRC-TV Channel 2 Vice President and General Manager Jerry Martin. “These partnerships are crucial to help spread vital resources and volunteers throughout our community in times of natural disasters.”
On August 30 and 31, KPRC2 and Telemundo Houston will hold a Hurricane Harvey Disaster Relief fundraising phone bank, beginning with Channel 2 News Today at 6:00am and running through 7:00pm. Donations supporting the Red Cross will be accepted over the phone and online on Click2Houston.com.
“As a Houston native I have been touched and inspired by the stories we have told showing the selfless acts of so many of our neighbors, “said KPRC-TV Channel 2 News Director Dave Strickland. “I know this city will find it in their heart to help those in need.”
The relief effort will be part of KPRC2’s continuous on-air and online live coverage of the flood disaster that has devastated our community. KPRC2 will continue to serve the Greater Houston area in the aftermath of Harvey on television and with a dedicated page on Click2Houston.com that is constantly being updated with the latest resources available to families in need.
