Sandy Journals Part 3

By the way, walking past one of the same stations that was out of gas a few days ago? Tonight there’s a line around the block and several police…policing it.

For some disaster relief links, here’s a list of ways to help from Thought Catalog. Again, donations, volunteers, and animal rescue. In particular in this article, a friend of the author who lives out in Breezy Point, Queens (an area that’s endured severe destruction, due to fires breaking out in the wake of the storm) has set up a donation center at the school he teaches at for donations and goods to the communities there.

Buzzfeed also has a list of was to get involved in various hit areas (I’m aware most of the things I’ve learned of are very grassroots and localized, though New York is not the only place that has suffered)
