H-E-B CEO Charles Butt announced today that he is making a personal, $5 million contribution to the J.J. Watt Foundation’s relief fund.

“Throughout this disaster, I have been humbled by the state’s unprecedented generosity and heroism,” said Butt. “I want to commend and support the extraordinary relief efforts of J.J. Watt who has taken the lead, not as a world-class NFL player or celebrity, but as an individual who saw the need to help his fellow Texans and immediately took action.”

A check for $5 million was presented on behalf of Charles Butt at NRG stadium today.
