News Corporation today announced it will donate $1 million to help victims of Hurricane Sandy - $500,000 to the Mayor's Fund for NYC and $500,000 for relief in New Jersey. The storm affected millions of people and, with the Company's global headquarters in New York City, had a direct impact on the communities within which many News Corporation employees live and work.
"Our hearts go out to those who have lost loved ones and those families coping with this tremendous natural disaster. But we are also heartened by the stories of communities pulling together, with neighbors helping neighbors through this difficult time," said Rupert Murdoch, Chairman and CEO, News Corporation. "I sincerely hope many other companies will also be able to provide assistance to families and communities in need of help."Videos
