For thousands of Venezuelan New Yorkers, the devastation caused by last month's earthquakes isn't just felt miles away—it's felt here at home.
Since news of the disaster broke, I've been immensely proud to see New Yorkers turn compassion into action. Today, I visited Lulla’s, a neighborhood restaurant that was transformed into a collection center for earthquake relief by owner Ivo Diaz. I joined volunteers packing donations like food, medicine, clothing, and even wheelchairs, that will support relief efforts on the ground in Venezuela.
If you're able, I encourage you to volunteer with Lulla’s to help provide critical support to those in need.
