LENDING A HAND: Major corporations pledge millions to help Florida recover from Ian

Major corporations are already pledging millions of dollars to help Florida recover after, which tied 2004's Hurricane Charley as the fourth-strongest storm to strike the Sunshine State.

Collectively, Walmart, Target, Home Depot and Lowe's have committed to donating up to $14 million to help organizations provide emergency shelter, food and other supplies to those affected by the storm, which has already killed a handful of people and knocked out power toOwner Robert Leisure walks into what used to be the gift shop of the Getaway Marina in Fort Myers Beach, Fla., Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022.

On top of donating $2 million to relief efforts, the home improvement retailer says more than 200 of its Emergency Response Team members are being deployed to stores in the hardest-hit areas to provide additional customer support and "give fellow associates a chance to focus on their families," the company said.

The company has also shipped more than 1,000 truckloads across the impacted region to ensure stores are well-equipped with emergency supplies.
