Supermodel Heidi Klum lent her efforts to affected victims and families of Superstorm Sandy by distributing supplies, food, and water in the afternoon on Dec. 2 at the American Red Cross Nassau Chapter in Mineola, NY, in partnership with the American Red Cross, AOL, and Patch.
Klum's efforts are a reminder that these communities still need help rebuilding. Here's how you can help locally:
- MBX Systems in Libertyville is collecting items for Hurricane Sandy victims through Dec. 12.
You can also donate to the American Red Cross, Long Island Cares, or Island Harvest.
And, you can help rebuild communities that were hit by Hurricane Sandy by simply sending a tweet: Patch’s effort to help support devastated communities after the storm, Patch Rebuilds, will donate $1 to the AmeriCares Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Fund, up to $125,000 with every tweet sent with the hashtag #PatchRebuilds.
Your contribution will go toward medical and humanitarian aid, grants and programs to help Sandy survivors.
Just tweet the hashtag #PatchRebuilds, or go to our Patch Rebuilds website, rebuilds.patch.com, and send your tweet directly from the site.
