Beyonce And Blue Ivy Help Out In Houston After Hurricane Harvey

Beyonce returned to her hometown of Houston, Texax this weekend with daughter Blue Ivy to help out in the relief efforts following the devastation of Hurricane Harvey.
Queen Bey was criticized for not publicly making a large monetary donation in the wake of the storm, but now she's giving herself a little PR on Instagram and on her web site for having done good down south.
Beyonce's mom Tina Knowles also lent a hand as part of the Beygood team, helping those who lost their homes in the natural disaster -- by serving meals and ... posing for photos (okay, we're not sure that was really helping, but hey, she's lifting people's spirits!).
The mother-of-three stopped by St. John's Church and with Destiny's Child member Michelle Williams for a day of volunteering; she told The Houston Chronicle, "I am working closely with my team at BeyGOOD as well as my pastor (Rudy Rasmus at St. John's in downtown Houston) to implement a plan to help as many as we can."
In fact, Pastor Rasums confirmed last month, that Beyonce DID, in fact, make a substantial donation after the hurricane, "She's starting out with a significant donation, and that donation is getting us to launch out into some areas that help us more effectively impact the communities that have been the most affected … She has, over the years, been very generous to our cause, and we continue to work together. She has been a huge benefactor to our efforts here in Houston, Texas."
Sounds like Beygood is doing good!
