This is the kind of stuff we need to see more of. We see plenty of negative stories all the time. They’re everywhere we look.
We need to shine a light on people who are doing everything they can to help those in need. Evans writing a check for $50,000 will almost certainly help a ton of people.

Texas was absolutely crushed by brutal winter weather in February that nobody was prepared for. In the aftermath since the storm ended, plenty of people have come together to help.
Now, Evans has gotten in on the action to the tune of $50,000.
