Responding to Recent Weather Events

Dear TC Community,

We send our deepest sympathies to all who have been directly affected by earthquakes in Mexico and Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria. These natural disasters have brought devastation, tragedy and massive hardships to the people of Mexico, Texas, South Florida, and the Caribbean.

Teachers College is exploring ways to offer our expertise and assistance where we may do the most good. Meanwhile for those who wish to support the relief and recovery efforts, we are sharing the list of charitable organizations and relief operations published by the New York Times.

Charities focused on relief and recovery from Hurricane Harvey can be found here.

Charities focused on relief and recovery from Hurricane Irma can be found here.

Charities focused on relief and recovery from Hurricane Maria can be found here.

Meanwhile, Mayor DeBlasio has listed 18 firehouses and EMS stations as collection sites for critically needed Hurricane-relief items. More information can be found here.
