The most famous native of Palestine, Texas is doing what he can to help his hometown in an hour of need.
Flash flooding in Palestine over the weekend killed six people, including four children. Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, who went to school with one of the adult victims, has partnered with the Salvation Army to raise awareness to the problem and funds for those in need.
Peterson has donated $100,000. He’ll also match all fan donations on a dollar-for-dollar basis, up to another $100,000.
Fans can donate by texting “AP28” to 51555 or by visiting the Salvation Army page created for contributions.
Every dollar you give gets doubled, up to $100,000. Any amount helps.
