Kenny Chesney Donates the Use of His Private Jet to Help Teen Brothers Stranded By Hurricane Irma

Two teenage brothers, whose home in St. John was destroyed by Hurricane Irma, got a flight to the U.S. mainland thanks to Kenny Chesney, according to CNN.

Jah-Haile Bruce and Jahbioseh Bruce huddled in a bathroom with their grandfather as their home in St. John was destroyed by Hurricane Irma two weeks ago. The brothers were evacuated via boat to St. Croix, but they had no way to get to Philadelphia, where their mother lives.

Kenny Chesney, who lives in St. John and also lost his island home in the storm, heard about the brothers’ predicament and, according to CNN, anonymously donated the use of his private jet to take the brothers to Philadelphia.
