The gift will support Hand in Hand, which has been collecting donations for various organizations , including United Way and Habitat for Humanity, in the wake of Hurricane Harvey. Its efforts recently expanded to include Hurricane Irma relief, which is projected to hit Florida on Saturday.
Our thoughts and prayers are with those affected by #Irma . Please stay safe! Apple is proud to support #HandInHand .
