As expected, Apple has already enabled a section on its US website through which to make donations to help all those affected by Hurricane Matthew, located on the southeast coast of the country. As on similar occasions when we have seen the company use this practice, the organization they work with is still the American Red Cross.
Donations, which They range from 5 to 200 dollars, they are made through iTunes, like any other payment we make in the company's services. In this way, Apple ensures that payment is convenient, fast and, above all, safe. Of course, at the moment donations can not be made from a territory other than that of the country itself.
This action thus adds to the many that we have already seen in the past by the company, especially in recent times, where Apple's social awareness with the world seems to have increased steadily. In addition, We have also seen tweets by Tim Cook on his Twitter account referring to this phenomenon that has compromised the tranquility and the lives of thousands of people.
Prayers for all those affected by #HurricaneMatthew. To those in your path tonight, please stay safe.
