Just over a year after basketball head coach Kelvin Sampson called for donations after Hurricane Harvey devastated the Texas coast, UH Athletics called on the Houston community to help those in need in the Carolinas, which were hit by Hurricane Florence last week.
Much like Harvey did to Houston last year, the Category 4 storm has flooded much of the coastline and left residents in need of food and shelter.
Athletes from multiple teams including soccer, basketball and football were on site to help donors load the goods into the trucks.
UH football players loaded the supplies into one of the team’s trailers that is usually used to transport equipment.
