Continue to Bring Donations to 368 Stratford

An update from Ditmas Relief, which will be accepting donations at 368 Stratford until 8pm tonight, as as long as they are needed:

We were out in Far Rockaway with our 11th, 12th and 13th bus full. There is still a tremendous need. We have access to buses until this job is done. The 368 Stratford donation center is open and ready to continue to accept donations. Anything but clothes. I talked to National Grid officials in the area we are working, they will not have electricity or gas for another 6-7 days. There is a storm coming and no one will leave their homes for fear of looters. They are hungry and cold but unbelievably high-spirited and thankful. If anyone can do anymore we really need it.

Most needed right now: food, water, all sizes of batteries, flashlights, blankets, medical supplies, soap, bleach, tools, flashlights, candles.
