Apple Pledges Aid for Storm-Hit Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Sri Lanka

Overview

• Tim Cook said on X that Apple will donate to relief and rebuilding in communities struck by recent storms.
• The commitment follows a separate pledge last week to support recovery after the deadly housing-complex fire in Hong Kong.
• Apple has not disclosed how much it will donate, which organizations will receive funds, or when aid will be distributed.
• News reports say severe rain, flooding, and landslides across the four countries have killed more than 1,200 people and affected millions.
• The response is consistent with Apple’s past disaster giving, including support for the Red Cross and an Employee Giving program that has raised over $880 million.
