As Milton moved through Florida, ensuring the safety and recovery of those in its path is a top priority.
“Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by Helene and Milton,” said Kirt Walker, Nationwide CEO. “While our claims and service teams are ready to assist our customers, our commitment to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund will support those who are bravely responding to provide essential aid and comfort after a disaster strikes.”
In support of those affected by both hurricanes, the Nationwide Foundation is making an additional $100,000 donation to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund, bringing total recent donations to $200,000 in response to the recent storms.
