(Washington, DC)—[CBN News] President Trump is donating $1 million to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts. CBN's Operation Blessing was chosen to receive $25,000 dollars. Operation Blessing has been on the ground in Texas since before Hurricane Harvey made landfall. As residents begin to make their way back to their homes in some areas, many are facing the grim reality that everything they have could be destroyed, or worse, gone altogether.
