“Hand in Hand will bring the country together to raise funds, spirits and help rebuild Texas in the wake of this unprecedented devastation," states the press release. "Proceeds from the telethon will benefit United Way of Greater Houston, Habitat for Humanity, Save the Children, Direct Relief, Feeding Texas and The Mayor’s Fund for Hurricane Harvey Relief (administered by the Greater Houston Community Fund) through the Hand in Hand Hurricane Relief Fund managed by Comic Relief USA.”

Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Harvey will air at 8 p.m. ET Sept. 12 on the major networks: CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox, as well as CMT. It will also be live streamed on Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter.
