I am proud of Wells Fargo for providing this donation to help with statewide relief efforts. Our thoughts continue to be with all affected.”
Additionally, from July 31st through August 14th, customers who wish to support the American Red Cross’s California wildfire relief efforts may do so by using any Wells Fargo ATM in California and selecting the option to donate. There is no fee for this service and 100% of contributions will be sent to the American Red Cross.
