In case you missed it, here's a story that appeared last week in Massapequa Patch:

MASSAPEQUA, NY - Town of Oyster Bay officials and members of the Massapequa Fire Department sent out supplies collected this week for the victims of Hurricane Harvey on Thursday.

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Town Councilman Louis Imbroto were among those to send off trailers of relief supplies donated over the past week to Texas.

“Thousands of people are still seeking food and temporary shelter as Hurricane Harvey delivered unprecedented amounts of rain in Texas,” Saladino said. “I thank the countless number of residents who generously donated items to assist fellow Americans in need. Together, we are helping make a difference in the lives of those who desperately need it and will continue to be at the ready to help communities in the days, weeks and months ahead.”

Essential items, such as food, water and cleaning supplies were donated by residents and will be delivered to Long Island’s largest hunger relief organization, Island Harvest, to support the ongoing relief efforts for the victims of Hurricane Harvey.
