Dear Family and Friends,

Our friend and colleague, Jodi Gilman has been dealing with the devastation caused by Sandy in her hometown on the South Shore of Long Island, where her parents still reside. Her parents, their friends, and neighbors have been managing the aftermath of storm destruction and considerable water damage to their homes and cars. They were told they will not have power for another two weeks. Anything you can donate will go to the relief effort in Jodi's community.
