International Paper’s Vicksburg mill has donated $5,000 to the Vicksburg Area Chapter of the American Red Cross. The funds, distributed by the IP Foundation, will help victims of April 24 storms that swept through several Mississippi counties, including northern Warren, causing damage at Eagle Lake.

The IP Foundation also gave the Red Cross money to buy educational materials for school children, and donated funds to other agencies.

IP’s Vicksburg mill is located off Mississippi 3.
