Raymond James donates $50,000 toward Louisiana Flood Relief

Louisiana has recently been affected by unprecedented floods that have caused catastrophic flooding and devastation. These life-threatening flood waters have already forced thousands to flee their homes or abandon their vehicles. Flooding is expected to continue for several days, and once waters recede, it will take some time to fully realize the extent of the damage.

Fortunately, community partners such as the Red Cross, the government and citizens are all working together to provide relief and support for the urgent needs of those affected. The Red Cross is working tirelessly to support ongoing relief operations, including emergency responding and providing shelter, food, basic health needs and emotional support for those facing devastating losses.

It’s important to let those whose lives were affected by this severe weather know the rest of the country is here to help, too. To show our support, Raymond James is donating $50,000 to the American Red Cross toward flood relief efforts. This donation will help provide rescue, shelter, food, relief items, emotional support and assistance to those in need. If you would like to help, I encourage you to make a donation – of any amount – through your local Red Cross chapter (redcross.org or 1-800-RED-CROSS) or another relief organization of your choice.

If you have questions about the community efforts of Raymond James, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
