[GPSCC-chat] How to effectively help people in New York affected by Sandy

[John Thielking]

I just now donated the last $40 in my bank account to the Long Island Food Not Bombs. Their donation button is located here: http://www.lifnb.com/faq
 
I heard on NBC Nightly News that the Red Cross is not getting relief into some of the areas where it is needed most. The poor people are being neglected obviously.  I figure that Food Not Bombs is set up to help the poor, so they will be more effective at getting aid to where it is needed most.  There was another storm after Sandy with more rain and snow than Sandy, so people are hurting all over again, if they even got bailed out the first time. The main page for LI FNB is located here: http://www.lifnb.com/
 
The main list of all the FNB orgs in the New York area is located here:

Good luck and Godspeed.
