What an incredible day. I met so many wonderful people (and a lovely dog too!) Way too many heartbreaking stories of loss and so much resilience.
We cleaned out a quite a few flooded homes and basements in the New Dorp area (beachfront), helped organize clothing, food and supply donations. Our office worked with Staten Island Strong - a fantastic organization. If you can get out there, they need all the help they can get. There is still SO much to be done.
The devastation is enormous.

The devastation is overwhelming but it's inspiring to see so many people coming together to help each other.
Yes! The damage is vast but there are so many amazing volunteers there every day. One of the saddest pieces of the aftermath is that so many of the first responders in the NYC/NJ area lived in the hardest hit places and have completely lost their homes. Yikes!
Thanks for reading!! :-)
