And it is that in these extreme situations such as those that are being experienced in southern California, or natural catastrophes that have occurred in the world (earthquakes, hurricanes, etc.) Apple usually makes this type of financial donations for help as much as possible the thousands of affected.
To get an idea of how complicated this situation is occurring in California, we have to say that in the fire christened Thomas, some 96.000 hectares of north Los Angeles have been burned and logically the losses are enormous, with more than 700 houses completely destroyed and more than 150 to date suffer considerable damage. Logically the disaster is of an impressive magnitude and for this reason Apple wants to contribute its two cents with this donation of one million dollars for the victims.
On the other hand, in addition to the donation itself, they are adding announcements, information and other news related to this disaster in their services of the App Store, iTunes, iTunes TV, Apple Music, Podcasts and the like so that users who want to can make donations or help directly in the reconstruction work of homes, businesses and other buildings affected. In this case, this is Apple's second donation for the victims of the fires, and it is that last October they already donated another million dollars to rebuild the damage caused by the fires in the north of the state.
As for the troops to fight these fires, little or nothing can do more than wait for the wind and temperatures to drop, and it is that strong gusts of wind are being reached that prevent any work or attempt to smother the flames. Hopefully it will soon be controlled, but for the moment it is still a complicated task.
