Tampa Bay Lightning owner Jeff Vinik announced Tuesday a $1 million donation to the American Red Cross in response to Hurricane Harvey flood relief efforts.

The donation comes six days after the NHL and the NHLPA made a combined contribution of $200,000 to the American Red Cross and Habitat for Humanity.

"Penny (Vinik) and I stand alongside the wider Tampa Bay Lightning family in expressing support for all victims of Hurricane Harvey," Vinik said in a statement. "We are honored to support our fellow Gulf Coast community and deeply admire the resilience of those affected by this storm. We will keep all residents and first responders in our thoughts as rebuilding efforts commence."

Hurricane Harvey caused recent catastrophic flooding in Houston. It was the first Category 4 hurricane to reach landfall in the U.S. since 2005. Harvey flooded hundreds of thousands of homes, displaced more than 30,000 people, and 66 casualties have been confirmed.
