Apple has begun accepting Red Cross donations via iTunes to help victims of the Alberta fires.
On May 1, 2016, a wildfire began southwest of Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada. On May 3, it swept through the community, destroying more than 1,600 homes and buildings and forcing the largest wildfire evacuation in Alberta's history. The fire continues to spread across northeast Alberta, and has impacted Canada's oil sand operations. The wildfire may become the most costly disaster in Canadian history. [W]
So far approximately 161,000 hectares of land has been burned and it's estimated that insurance payouts could total as much as CAN$9 billion if the entire community has to be rebuilt.
