The City of Glen Cove in conjunction with La Fuerza Unida de Glen Cove and the Brookville Reform Church has launched an effort to raise funds for the relief effort in El Salvador. "A number of residents in our city are from El Salvador," said Mayor Thomas Suozzi. "They have suffered tremendous losses due to last Saturday's earthquake and we hope to help them to help their loved ones back home. We are calling on Glen Cove to open up its heart. Our goal is to raise the money by next Monday morning and we need the help of every church, synagogue, fraternal and charitable organization." FULL STORY
