Apple Donating to Notre Dame Rebuilding Efforts in Paris After Historic Cathedral Damaged in Fire

Apple will be donating to Notre Dame rebuilding efforts to help restore the historic cathedral in Paris, according to a tweet from its CEO Tim Cook (https://twitter.com/tim_cook/status/1118147856613818369).

Notre Dame was significantly damaged in a fire (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/15/world/europe/notre-dame-fire.html) on Monday. While the cause of the blaze remains unknown, the cathedral had been undergoing renovations, and at this point it is believed that it may have been accidental. Fortunately, reports indicate that no lives were lost in the fire, but at least one first responder is injured.

Relieved that everyone is safe.  Apple will be donating to the rebuilding efforts to help restore Notre Dame’s precious heritage for future generations.🇫🇷</p>&mdash; Tim Cook (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/tim-cook/) (@tim_cook) April 16, 2019 (https://twitter.com/tim_cook/status/1118147856613818369?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></center>


Cook did not indicate how much Apple will donate to the efforts. Less than 24 hours after the fire, French billionaires and other companies have already pledged over $450 million (https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/16/business/francois-henri-pinault-bernard-arnault-notre-dame-donation/index.html) to help rebuild Notre Dame.
