At Monday night’s reading, we will solicit donations for Occupy Sandy.  As many of you know, Occupy Sandy volunteers were on the ground early, walking door to door checking on residents including those in high-rise housing projects without power or hot water.  They continue to help survivors get food and medicine and supplies. (Here is a recent story on their efforts in the NYT, and here is a Tumblr blog on Rockaway post-Sandy). We want to support our neighbors as they recover and rebuild.  If you come out on Monday, please consider giving a cash donation—any amount will help.  If you can’t make it, consider going to Occupy Sandy’s Amazon registry page to place an order for supplies (ex. batteries, diapers) that will go directly to the volunteers for distribution.  Or, you may send a check to:

Occupy Sandy/AfGJ
Alliance for Global Justice

Thank you.  See you Monday.
