You can help to rebuild communities that were hit by Hurricane Sandy by donating cans of food, volunteering for cleanup efforts or simply sending a tweet.

Patch is excited to announce its new effort to help to support devastated communities after the storm. For every tweet sent with the hashtag #PatchRebuilds, we will donate $1 to the AmeriCares Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Fund, up to $125,000.

Your contribution will go toward medical and humanitarian aid, grants and programs to help Sandy survivors.

You can simply tweet the hashtag #PatchRebuilds, or go to our Patch Rebuilds website—rebuilds.patch.com/Baldwin-Whitehall—and tweet directly from the site.

A customized tweet that starts with "My heart belongs to" is created from the Patch Rebuilds website, and tweeters can type in the name of an area that they are most connected to that was hit by Hurricane Sandy.

Act now: rebuilds.patch.com/Baldwin-Whitehall.
