I would like to congratulate Jose on a job extremely well done.

Last month when (before Sandy) we released the information about the canned food drive we were doing Jose thought it would be a good idea to use the flyers to bring in cans. What he did next was above and beyond what was expected.

He spent 4 hours walking up and down Metro in uniform handing out flyers and asking for donations. All in all he collected 118 items of food and $212.35

Upon speaking to him a few days ago, he thought that using the money to help Sandy Victims would have been best. With the help of one of the connections we made during our drive, we found out there was a need for blankets in the Canarsie area.

Because of his hard work, we were able to purchase 35 blankets which will help keep people warm in an area where power still hasn’t been totally restored, and had money left over.

Great Job Jose. You made a difference in 35 people’s lives, which is something you should be very proud of.
