ExxonMobil’s affiliate ExxonMobil Moçambique Limitada will contribute another $50,000 to organizations operating in Mozambique that are assisting the government with disaster relief efforts.
“We are deeply saddened by the impact of Cyclone Idai on Mozambique and surrounding countries,” said Darren W.
