Donations to rebuild Notre Dame top 600 million euros

Pledges from France’s corporations and richest families to help rebuild the fire-ravaged Notre Dame cathedral in Paris have topped 600 million euros ($680 million), according to an AFP tally of donations announced so far.

The latest major contribution came from French cosmetics giant L’Oreal and its founding Bettencourt family, which gave 200 million euros to the reconstruction effort.
