Texans receiver Andre Johnson's foundation will donate $10,500 to the Houston Area Women's Center in a ceremony at 2 p.m. today.

The center, on Waugh Drive, is the 2006 beneficiary of the Andre Johnson Foundation Celebrity Weekend.

The Houston Area Women's Center works within the community to eliminate domestic and sexual violence.

"The Andre Johnson Foundation is committed to empowering and developing youth from single-parent homes into responsible and educated citizens," Johnson said. "With generous support from donors and volunteers, the Houston Area Women's Center can work year-round to lead the fight against domestic violence."
