The TCU football team will honor the victims in Houston and South Texas with a “Houston Strong” decal on their helmets for Saturday’s season opener against Jackson State at Amon G. Carter Stadium.

TCU has set up a special page on its website for Hurricane Harvey relief donations.

The university is working with Goodwill Industries of Fort Worth to assemble hygiene kits for the Hurricane Harvey evacuees staying at local shelters.

TCU hosted the Rice football team for five days after the Owls were forced to fly to DFW from Australia last week after a game in Sydney. Both Houston airports were closed at the time and much of the city was under water.
