Lowe's donated $250,000 to American Red Cross disaster relief to help with damages from Texas' recent winter storms.
"Millions of people - with the majority in Texas - have been left without power, heat and in some cases, water due to winter storms bringing extreme cold, heavy snow and ice to a broad swath of the country," Chief Development Officer at the American Red Cross, Don Herring said.
The donation will help Red Cross provide shelter, food, relief supplies, emotional support, and other assistance to thousands negatively affected by the recent Texas storm and other disasters.
Lowe's is a recognized Mission Leader this year, which is the highest level of corporate recognition at the American Red Cross.
