Taylor Swift isn’t the only celebrity stepping up to help victims of this month’s Louisiana floods, which have displaced 40,000 people from their homes. On Monday Britney Spears, who grew up in Kentwood, Louisiana, announced a Crowdrise campaign to raffle off the dress she wears at this year’s MTV VMAs to fund Red Cross relief efforts in the state. Another raffle winner will win a trip to Sunday’s ceremony, complete with a meet-and-greet with Spears. You can donate here to enter.

Not to be outdone, Ryan Murphy and the cast of Scream Queens, which shoots in the state, have partnered with 21st Century Fox to raise money to benefit the Louisiana Association of United Ways’ Flood Fund. Fox has donated $100,000, and has started a charity drive among its employees to raise more, while Murphy, Jamie Lee Curtis, Abigail Breslin, Billie Lourd, and Emma Roberts recorded a PSA encouraging viewers to text donations to the fund.
