Occupy Sandy Relief Network Resources

Occupy Relief Network Resources for Sandy Relief

Occupy is a community-based non-profit movement which has the ability to effectively spread relief to communities.  Other traditional non-profit organizations follow a corporate style structure which create slow results as well as waste/mismanagement of donations. Occupy has the potential to transform standard models of Disaster Relief.  Occupy groups in California can learn from the Occupy response to Hurricane Sandy, as model for response to earthquake or fire related disasters.
