How The Jersey Shore Can Help Hurricane Harvey Victims

With torrential rain expected through mid-week, and some areas two feet under water, first responders can't even reach those that need help. Rescue and repair efforts will daunting and likely last a very long time.
The American Red Cross is on the ground in affected areas, and more volunteers are being called in.
The best way we can help is to make a donation to Red Cross.
