Pause. Today is the one year anniversary of Sandy. Thank you Team Equinox, of the Hurricane Sandy Relief Volunteer Group for all the amazing heart you expressed among ourselves as we went out in the first days after the storm, finding each other and synergizing our love to make a difference for the city.
I found you - through other concerned friends on Facebook, OR as we worked out at Equinox in the Upper West Side. And you agreed to sign up for my email list to volunteer in the Rockaways, and other areas hit by the storm. Then, joined this Google group.
The small actions lead to big impact!
As a result of your work, heart, and willingness to love our fellow New Yorkers only a few miles away, here's two news articles that show the impact we made:
1) A story of Fabio Salvodelli, who I met at spin class at Columbus Circle,
and his Rockaways work with his two young sons.
2) A story I investigated in the Rockaways about unreported deaths, which was referenced as a primary source in a New York Times front page article, "A Queens High Rise Where Fear, Death and Myth Collided" by Sheri Fink
I love you guys.
Warmly,
Minda
