As native New Yorkers and New York City residents, those of use here at The Occult Section are still reeling from Hurricane Sandy and its aftermath. Many people died, businesses and waterfronts were destroyed, and thousands are still without power, food, water and shelter.
As such, we do not feel comfortable blogging just yet. We will be back soon, but for now we are asking people to help in any way they can. Below is a list, which we will continue to add to, of places where you can donate and/or volunteer. Places you may have never heard about, like Staten Island, Coney Island, the Rockaways, and Seaside have been decimated, and these people need as much help as they can get. If you know a place that we don’t have listed here, please feel free to e-mail us. Thank you.

- Staten Island Recovers
- Red Hook Recovers
- Astoria Recovers
- The Lower East Side Recovers
