Actress and West Virginia native Jennifer Garner is heading to her home state to raise money for a school damaged by deadly floods.

Garner will attend a July 19 fundraiser at the University of Charleston for flood-damaged Herbert Hoover High School in Clendenin.

Admission is $100 or $500 for a meet-and-greet and photo. Sponsorships are $1,000.

The June 23 floods killed 23 people and ravaged homes and infrastructure. Clendenin was one of the hardest-hit towns.

Floods left mud in the halls and ruined some classrooms at Herbert Hoover. The boiler room had 10 feet of water. The rest of the first floor had 7 feet of water.

Country singer and fellow West Virginia native Brad Paisley toured the school late last month. He’s also raising money for flood victims.
