Event Recap: Strides Against Sandy
Last month, Super Storm Sandy hit the US and neighboring countries. It was the largest Atlantic hurricane on record, affecting 24 states, killing hundreds,and leaving thousands homeless and millions without electricity. KCTC teamed up with Garry Gribble's Running Sports for an impromptu Wednesday Night Run to play a part in the rebuilding process. Through their efforts, KCTC was able to raise $290 for Hurricane Relief.
There is still much work to be done and many suffering, especially as winter moves in. If you would like to donate to these relief efforts, please visit www.redcross.org.
