Nebraska football fans, if you are in a position to help Hurricane Harvey victims but don't know how, the University of Nebraska can help.

At Nebraska’s next home football game against Northern Illinois on Sept. 16th, the Huskers will celebrate their annual Red Cross/First Responders Day. The Red Cross will pass the buckets at halftime and have announced that all funds collected at the Sept. 16 game will go to help the victims of Hurricane Harvey.

If you'd like to immediately donate online, head to www.redcross.org, or by texting "HARVEY" to 90999.

Nebraska Athletics will also alert Husker Fans how to donate to the Red Cross for Hurricane Harvey Disaster Relief at Saturday's home opener against Arkansas State.

For additional information on the American Red Cross and Hurricane Harvey Disaster Relief, please contact Brian Schenk, Regional Chief Development Officer at 402-607-9008.
