The Home Depot Foundation has announced it is increasing its funds for disaster relief for Hurricane Florence, Tropical Storm Olivia, the California wildfire and flooding in the Midwest to $3 million.
The company sent $500,000 to Operation Blessing and Convoy of Hope to replenish their warehouses with much-needed supplies ahead of Florence’s landfall.
Besides offering financial support, the foundation also has sent 200 volunteers to work alongside other agencies offering relief in the states. On Thursday, company employees will pack nearly 2,400 relief buckets to be shipped to families in the affected areas.
