French billionaire gives USD 109 million to rebuild Notre Dame
French billionaire Francois Pinault and son Francois-Henri Pinault have officially signed documents setting aside 100 million euros (USD 109 million) toward rebuilding Notre Dame Cathedral.
Tuesday's donation follows months of delays that left French officials largely reliant on small charity donations to fund the first phase of repairs, following the devastating fire on April 15.
Paris Archbishop Michel Aupetit says "everyone gives what he can according to his needs, but the big donors give us breathing room."
