Amazing: Here Are All The Stars Who Accepted Kevin Hart’s #HurricaneHarveyChallenge
Parts of Texas and Louisiana have seen unimaginable devastation courtesy of Hurricane Harvey. With 25 inches of rainfall over the course of two days and an estimated 25 more expected by Saturday, CNN projects that 450,000 victims will be in need of some sort of assistance once the storm subsides.
In response to the devastation, comedian Kevin Hart spearheaded a social media challenge encouraging each of his celebrity friends to donate $25,000 in relief efforts — and a lot of them rose to the occasion.
Almost instantly, Hart’s friends like T.I., Nicki Minaj and Chris Brown took to social media proudly accepting his challenge.
There were some differences in opinion about the organizations Hart suggested to support, but that didn’t discourage his friends from offering their help.

T.I. was among the first celebs to answer the call for assistance. While he willingly agreed to donate a whopping $25,000 to help those in need, he specified that one organization he's "not f*****g with" is the Red Cross.
Love & Hip Hop faves Waka Flocka and Tammy Rivera happily accepted the challenge but shared T.I.'s sentiment on wanting to look into other organizations to donate to.
Nicki Minaj couldn’t help but compliment Kevin Hart for taking the initiative and followed suit with $25K of her own.
