Take time before your holiday to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy

Before you go on vacation tomorrow, please take some time to volunteer for Sandy victims in Brooklyn.

Volunteers will assess the needs of the community in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Volunteers will go door to door with a survey and ask individuals and families what their greatest needs are so we can better provide help in the future. We will also be distributing water and attending some holiday distribution events to help out.

Volunteers will be trained on sight and accompanied by a representative from Red Cross and Occupy Sandy. Regular volunteering is very welcome and needed for this ongoing effort.

Volunteers must be 18 and over and able to walk up 14 flights of stairs. Dress warm, buildings may have no heat and there will be time spent outside.

NO NEED TO SIGN UP! please just show up at the meeting point.
 
Date: Friday, December 21st
Location: Coney Island Gospel Assembly - 2828 Neptune Avenue, Brooklyn, NY. We will be meeting at the trailer across the street from the church.
Time: 12:00am (no specified end time, plan on staying for at least 2 hours)
