CEO Tim Cook says that Apple intends to donate to relief efforts in Valencia, Spain after the area experienced catastrophic flooding.
Following heavy rainfall that struck Valencia, Spain, the region experienced what may be the deadliest flooding in modern Spanish history. More than a year’s worth of rain fell in just eight hours, destroying bridges and buildings and resulting in at least 95 deaths in the area.
In response, Cook said the company would help fund relief efforts on the ground.
We’re thinking of all those impacted by the devastating flash floods in the region of Valencia, Spain. Apple will be making a donation to help with relief efforts on the ground.
