TWEET: Our government needs to fund Hurricane Sandy toxic debris removal to help victims to the performers at: @AliciaKeys @BonJovi @KanyeWest @PaulMcCartney @RollingStones @Springsteen @TheWho
On Wednesday, December 12, the Robin Hood Relief Fund will host the 12-12-12 Concert, which benefits the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Concert performers include Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Bon Jovi, Alicia Keys, the Rolling Stones, the WHO, and Kanye West.
Hurricane Sandy devastated New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Six weeks later, mountains of debris remain, thousands are without power and displaced, and funds are needed to rebuild. In addition, it has been reported to ADAO that many homes have friable asbestos that needs to be remediated. Exposure to asbestos and other post-Sandy toxic debris poses serious health hazards as these substances cause a variety of illnesses. ADAO urges the federal and local government to fund the toxic debris removal, training, and health and safety materials that the tri-state residents desperately need.

Together, change is possible.
