Hurricane Sandy has caused enormous amounts of damage all over the North East and Mid West. Below are a few volunteer opportunities for anyone who's willing and able to lend a hand to those in need in the NYC area.
The Hudson River Park staff are calling for volunteers to help get the park ready for re-opening. If you’d like to join them and get your hands dirty, the Hudson River Park will be hosting a volunteer day tomorrow (11/2) from 10am to 1pm for immediate garbage and debris pickup. Those interested can sign up to become a volunteer [1] or contact us by email at volunteer@fohrp.org [2], or by phone 917-661-8751. And if you are able to provide your financial support, become a member and give what you can [3].
