Hurricane Sandy was a once in a lifetime weather event for the New York, in fact, the tri-state area. New Yorkers proved remarkably resilient and kind to one another in this crisis. We have seen and appreciated the outpouring of help and volunteerism from our fellow Americans, that saved many lives. And some of the lucky people have been able to try and return to normalcy with flood insurance checks and funds from FEMA. But what about the folks who are stuck in horribly unhealthy conditions, awaiting the long overdue monies that Congress held up? The folks in Far Rockaway, Queens can’t forget about Sandy, as the wreckage of their homes, lives, and the very moldy air they breathe is a constant reminder.
New Yorkers, please check out a petition to help folks in Far Rockaway HERE. Let your Mayor know what your wishes are for Far Rockaway.
