by Samantha McDonald

For the sixth consecutive day, Hurricane Harvey continues to ravage southeast Texas and surrounding cities, causing the deaths of at least 31 people and destroying an estimated 30,000 homes through widespread flooding in the worst rainfall the state has seen in decades. The tropical storm, which rose to a deadly Category 4 upon hitting the Gulf Coast, has left much of the community lacking food, shelter and essential supplies to survive. In turn, people all over the country have offered to do their part, whether it entails lending a helping hand or pledging donations to assist in relief efforts—and celebrities are no exception. From J.Lo and A-Rod to the Kardashian-Jenner clan, here are the A-listers taking action in a time of crisis.
