Beyoncé just launched her own Hurricane Harvey fundraising initiative

Hold up: Beyoncé just launched her own fundraising initiative to help out the victims of Hurricane Harvey.

On Thursday, the pop icon revealed that her BeyGOOD Foundation is working with Bread of Life and the Greater Houston Community Foundation to raise funds for relief efforts. The Houston native's website encourages fans to donate to both organizations as the BeyGOOD team "heads to Houston to continue our relief efforts on the ground." Beyoncé herself has reportedly already donated a "significant" amount.

Queen Bey isn't the only celebrity getting in formation post-Harvey: Drake also announced Thursday that he's donating $200,000 to a Hurricane Harvey relief fundraiser being held by Houston Texans player J.J. Watt.
