More Gifts!

Due to the generosity of so many of you, we have now raised $4,025.00 in disaster relief funds for the small town of Moonachie, NJ.  I have confirmed that I will go to Moonachie on Friday, November 16th so that I can deliver the various gifts and to better assess progress being made on the ground in addition to needs that will exist going forward.

Right now, food, power, warmth, cleaning supplies, and decent housing are among the top priorities.  One can imagine that the flooding and loss of power, which continues to exist in a number of areas, have caused so many of these problems. 

I can tell you there has been great furniture loss, damaged stoves and refrigerators, ruined carpeting and drywall, and the loss of prized possessions.  It truly is heartbreaking to see the scale of damages.  It does compare to the suffering incurred by many as a result of Hurricane Katrina.

I will keep you up to date on events as they unfold.

Thanks,
Dick
