Apple CEO Tim Cook announced to employees that the company has donated $2.5 million to the American Red Cross for Hurricane Sandy relief, according to an email obtained by 9to5Mac.
----- Team,
For the past week, our thoughts have been with those affected by Hurricane Sandy and its aftermath. And Apple employees and customers the world over have raised millions of dollars toward the relief effort so far. But we can always do more.
That's why, on behalf of all our employees, Apple is making a donation of $2.5 million to the American Red Cross to benefit Hurricane Sandy relief. We hope this contribution will help families, businesses, and communities recover and rebuild.
Time Cook November 8, 2012 ------
Apple has also begun accepting American Red Cross donations that will go to help those affected by Superstorm Sandy via iTunes.

Agree.. Half the money likely end up in Red Cross' president pocket, and the other get "lost" in fees
