An affiliate of a multiline insurer is stepping up to support efforts to recover from the massive storm that pounded communities such as Galveston, Texas, and Houston over this past weekend.
Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, Columbus, Ohio, says the Nationwide Foundation is giving $275,000 to the Red Cross to help the Red Cross cope with hurricanes.
The foundation has given a total of $1 million to disaster relief efforts this year, the Nationwide says.
