(Photo by Marko Kokic/American Red Cross)") Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK) has committed $100,000 to the American Red Cross to support disaster relief for Hurricane Helene. Hurricane Helene is the second-deadliest mainland US Hurricane in the past 50 years behind Hurricane Katrina in 2005, claiming more than 200 lives to date with hundreds of people still reported missing. The [American Red Cross](https://www.redcross.org/) is mobilizing truckloads of cots, blankets, and comfort kits, and providing food, medicine, and shelter. Over 32 million people and 12 million households have been impacted, with 15% of those impacted living below the poverty level. “It is devastating to see so much of our country impacted by Hurricane Helene. Our hearts and thoughts are with all those who have lost their homes, livelihoods and communities,” said Rockwell’s Ashley Johnson, manager, Community Relations. “We lean on our longstanding relationship with the Red Cross and support their front-line efforts to help so many who are in need.” [![Rockwell Automation logo](/sites/default/files/Clients/2019_RA_Logo_Bug-LeftText_rgb.png)](/profiles/rockwell-automation) ### More from Rockwell Automation ###### [Ethisphere Names Rockwell Automation as One of the 2026 World’s Most Ethical Companies](/news/ethisphere-names-rockwell-automation-one-2026-worlds-most-ethical-companies) Mar 18, 2026 10:00 AM ET ###### [Preparing Students for Emerging Roles in Smart Manufacturing](/news/preparing-students-emerging-roles-smart-manufacturing) Mar 5, 2026 10:00 AM ET ###### [Reducing Energy Consumed by Hydraulic Power Systems by up to 80%](/news/reducing-energy-consumed-hydraulic-power-systems-80) Feb 24, 2026 10:00 AM ET ###### [Supporting Agile Production of Large-Scale, Sustainable Heating and Cooling Systems](/news/supporting-agile-production-large-scale-sustainable-heating-and-cooling-systems) Feb 10, 2026 10:00 AM ET ###### [Helping Customers Quantify Scope 3 Impact of Repair and Remanufacturing](/news/helping-customers-quantify-scope-3-impact-repair-and-remanufacturing) Jan 27, 2026 10:00 AM ET ###### [Building a More Resilient, Agile, and Sustainable Future](/news/building-more-resilient-agile-and-sustainable-future) Jan 15, 2026 10:00 AM ET ###### [Rockwell Automation 2025 Sustainability Report Reflects Continued Commitment To Build a More Resilient, Agile, and Sustainable Future](/news/rockwell-automation-2025-sustainability-report-reflects-continued-commitment-build-more) Dec 22, 2025 11:00 AM ET ###### [Rockwell Automation and ICT Academy Partner To Bring Skills Development Program for Students in India](/news/rockwell-automation-and-ict-academy-partner-bring-skills-development-program-students-india) Nov 24, 2025 10:00 AM ET
