TORONTO, Nov. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - RBC today announced a $250,000 donation to the American Red Cross to support relief and humanitarian efforts for those affected by the catastrophic damage caused by Hurricane Sandy in the United States.
"The scale of this disaster is enormous and its impact has been devastating to millions of people and their communities," said Gordon Nixon, president & CEO of RBC. "We have a long-standing tradition of responding to natural disasters, and in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, our thoughts are with all of our employees, clients, families and friends in the affected regions that have been impacted by the devastation of the storm."
