As many of you know, Hurricane Sandy has affected many areas in the Northeastern US. Specifically Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia, and Vermont. Certain states, such as New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, suffered much more damage than others, such as Vermont. Regardless, many peoples lives have drastically changed, and many have lost their lives. Hurricane Sandy demolished over a million homes and left hundreds of thousands of people with no power, shelter, food, or water, and many people injured.

To help those in need, BoostedK20 has started a "Hurricane Sandy 2012 Relief Donation Program." Of course, all donations will go directly to charity to help those in need. We initially decided to split all donations evenly THREE ways to ensure that we will address the three main aspects - medical, food/water, and shelter. However, after much research and speaking to various charities, we realized that American Red Cross is DIRECTLY helping those in need, and hits all 3 aspects we mentioned above. So, 100% of all donations will go to American Red Cross. As a token of their appreciation, Paypal has waived all fees for donations to American Red Cross, and because our donations will be sent to them, they have waived our fees as well!

Any donation - big or small - will go a long way in helping those in need during this tragic crisis.

I'm not seeing where I can donate. You think it's because I need to be on a PC?

I'm on my phone through tapatalk now.

Unfortunately, you can only see the button on a computer. I have been doing my best to get this to work for those on Tapatalk; for some reason the button is invisible on Tapatalk.
