While Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, compares refugees to poisoned skittles, the CEOs, Presidents and other executives of 51 companies are coming together to pledge hundreds of millions of dollars to aid refugees all across the world, the White House has announced.Coming together to show solidarity and compassion while world leaders meet for the U.N. General Assembly session, the companies   which include Matercard, Facebook, Twitter, Johnson & Johnson, and yogurt maker Chobani   will use the money to promote, sustain and continue education, employment and financial services all across the world, and alleviate suffering to over 6 million refugees:Today, 51 U.S. companies   which represent more than 2.5 million employees, more than $775 billion in annual revenue, and more than $3.2 trillion in market capitalization  have stepped up and are standing with the Administration to demonstrate that private sector innovation and resources can make a difference and catalyze real solutions. Together, they have committed to investing, donating, and raising more than $650 million.The hefty pledge is just part of the White House s goal of $3 billion in humanitarian aid, and the announcement was made just as President Obama hosted a refugee summit with the leaders of Jordan, Mexico, Sweden, Germany, Canada and Ethiopia, countries that have taken in thousands of refugees from Syria and other war-torn states.While meeting with the company CEOs and George Clooney, President Obama thanked them for their  extraordinary gesture of compassion,  saying: I want to emphasize that from their perspective this isn t charity. This is part of their overall mission. It makes good business sense. Unlike Trump s businesses   in which hotel stays have plummeted   people like to be compassionate, see compassion, and act on it.U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told world leaders and the company leaders,  Your compassion will really help these helpless people. If not us, who can do it? Certainly not Donald J. Trump, nor his spawn of selfish fear-mongers.The companies took to social media to express their support for President Obama s call to action:We believe in a world where you can #BelongAnywhere. Today there are millions of displaced refugees in need of belonging somewhere.
