Dear members:
We hope you and your families are safe and warm following superstorm Sandy and the impending nor’easter.
So many journalism colleagues have been affected storm and need help, large and small. Many of you are also looking for ways to lend a hand.
Do you need a place to charge up, get access to the web or simply to have a place to work? Do you need a warm place to stay, clothing or other essentials?
If you’re in need of help, or if you’re willing to donate, please don’t be shy.
Contact us at jprim@netscape.com or call 908-399-4771 and we’ll connect you.
