Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands are still recovering from the devastation left behind by Hurricane Maria. 

We applaud U.S. Rep Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), the first Puerto Rican woman to be elected to Congress, for her bold stance for the people of Puerto Rico.

Help your fellow Americans and raise funds locally for hurricane relief at these upcoming events:

• Oct. 18-31: Share the love at Pizza Luce
• Thursday, Oct. 19: El Asopao at Black Dog Cafe
• Thursday, Oct. 26: Fundraiser for World Central Kitchen Puerto Rico
