HURRICANE SANDY RELIEF EFFORTS

The storm destroyed their houses and possessions, and many have been displaced from their homes and will need help for the indefinite future. Members of the Notre Dame family throughout the northeast already are working very hard to assist our friends and neighbors. To those of you who want to join our efforts, please see how you can help!
