Mormon Helping Hands, Hurricane Sandy - Rockaway, NY [Video]

Mormon Helping Hands :: Hurricane Sandy :: Rockaways, NY from Joshua Brown on Vimeo.

"The needs of others are ever present, and each of us can do something to help someone." - Thomas S. Monson

This had to make it on the blog. An inspiring video on the work that our Mormon brothers and sisters are taking part in, in the US (specifically the NY area). The aftermath of the super storm Hurricane Sandy has left most of the entire east-coast, a total wreck. We hear on the news of the lack of work being done by the nonprofit organizations (such Red Cross and FEMA) and some people still left without power. The thought of our fellow citizens left out in the cold during the height of autumn is excruciating. 

With the terrific video work of Joshua Brown, we get a peak into the effort made by members of our Church, Muslims, and Catholics in the affected areas of Hurricane Sandy. The above video, takes place on November 11th, when thousands of our members cancelled Church services and arrived in a community in Rockaway, NY to assist the victims of this storm.

Share this video to family and friends (member or non-member) that might be able to help areas affected by Hurricane Sandy. Join the Facebook Group.
