According to the state examiner, at least 24 people, including nine children, were killed in Monday’s tornado that ripped through Moore, Oklahoma. News of elementary school children trapped in rubble shocked the nation. Roughly 300 homes were reduced to mere debris and the world watched in shock. In an effort to do his part and give back, Oklahoma City Thunder’s Kevin Durant donated $1 million to the Red Cross tornado disaster relief. The NBA and the players’ union are also banding together to add another $1 million donation for relief efforts in the Oklahoma City area as well as the Thunder’s main sponsor, Chesapeake Energy who has pledged $1 million as well.
This is a very noble thing for Kevin Durant to do. If you’d like to make a $10 donation to the Red Cross to assist in disaster relief text REDCROSS to 90999.
