Solange, Tina Lawson and Kelly Rowland will host an event in Baton Rouge to celebrate the city’s toughness and resilience. And Beyonce will be chipping in as well. More inside…

Those Texas gals are putting on for their beloved Louisiana.

Teaming up with ESSENCE, Solange, Mama Tina and Kelly Rowland, with support from Beyonce and her BEYGOOD initiative, will host "Love on Louisiana: An Essence Hometown Heroes Tribute" to celebrate the resilience of the people of Baton Rouge.  The city suffered tremendous flooding recently which has affected its economy, and the ladies are front and center ready to help.

The holiday dinner and awards ceremony is set to go down November 20th at the Raising Cane's River Center, according to NOLA.com. The special event will honor standout students and teachers who are committed to help rebuild their communities. They also have the support from the City of Baton Rouge and the State of Louisiana.

There will be a call to action to raise $1 million to help families recover after this summer’s catastrophic flooding.

"Louisiana is a special place in my family's history and we are committed as a family to never forget the city and the people of Baton Rouge," said Tina Knowles-Lawson in a press release. "It breaks my heart to see the unimaginable disaster and destruction caused by the flooding, and we will stand and support every effort in place to help the people most affected."

Just another example of YBF celebs are doing more than just speaking out. They’re contributing their time and money to give back to the community. Bless up!

 

BONUS: Solange and Kelly Rowland have been hanging out all week.  The two hit the 13th Annual CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards at Spring Studios after Solo's big night on "SNL."
