The 2021 Atlantic hurricane season officially begins today, and it is forecast to be yet another busy one.
With an active season in mind, Amazon and the Red Cross are hoping a brand new disaster relief hub and partnership will allow for a faster response to locations hit by hurricanes and other natural disasters. "Our disaster relief and response team is partnering with global humanitarian relief organizations to leverage Amazon's scale to help improve response time to large-scale natural disasters around the world," Alicia Boler Davis, vice president of Global Customer Fulfillment at Amazon, said in a news release to CNN.More Related News
