He has lost everything as his apt was flooded to the ceiling. I know it is difficult to reach parts of brooklyn, but please help if you are in the area. He wanted me to post that he is in dire need of flashlights, c batteries, contractor bags, work gloves, tarp, water, candles, 32/30pants, sm/med shirts, socks If anyone is able to get through to Gerittsen Beach, 3 Ira Court, with any donations and or help, it would be greatly appreciated.

What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like. Saint Augustine
