The award-winning country music star Zach Bryan was spotted helping with cleanup efforts in Nebraska, following a series of tornados that ripped across the midwest.
Bryan Steps Up To Help After Tornado
CBS News reported that roughly 106 separate tornadoes were identified across six states late last week. Nebraska and Iowa were the hardest hit, according to officials.
The Omaha World-Herald reports that Bryan stepped in himself to assist in the cleanup and wasn’t looking for publicity for his actions.
“How cool is it that he would just show up and start working?” one witness said. “He was just out there among the people without any fanfare. As the mother of two teenagers, that’s the kind of celebrity I want my kids to follow.”
People Magazine reported that a 17 year-old only identified as Gavin was with several other members of his football team at Elkhorn High School in Nebraska when Bryan suddenly showed up to help.
“Zach’s people were saying they didn’t want any pictures or anything because he was just there to help,” he said. “It was pretty awesome to see that.”
Video of his efforts made their way to social media.
