In a video message posted to social media, O'Donnell said he hopes fans will organise coaches to bring as many people to the show as possible.
"I'm sure, like myself, you are all shocked and horrified but, thank God, nobody lost their lives," he said of the flood damage. "But nevertheless, lots of people have suffered."
"We're hoping it'll be a great turnout to make this a successful event. And I know that as well as the money raised, the very fact that there's a large number of people who are turning out and gathering together, it'll give the people in Inishowen and further afield great hope that things are being done, and to make their plight heard."
Proceeds after costs will go to the Irish Red Cross, with all artists donating their time free of charge. Tickets are priced at €30 and are on sale locally from Monday and on Ticketmaster from Tuesday.
