New York DJ Aims to Help Far Rockaway Residents

"Joe B." 

"I Can't Just Sit Around When So Many From My Hometown Need Help"

On November 4, From The G-Man was contacted and asked to publish the following statement in effort to gain support for a Rockaway-targeted project. 

The correspondent has a long-standing relationship with this news and information site as a staunch supporter, and From The G-Man views him as a person of profound compassion and integrity. 

Hello.

My name is Joseph Bonilla, and I’m a professional deejay, engineer and Long Island resident. I spent the majority of my life growing up in the Far Rockaway area, and it would be an understatement to say that I am proud to be associated with Rockaway.

As a result of the devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy, Far Rockaway, as well other areas of the peninsula, has been destroyed. I am in the process of trying to put together much-needed supplies to deliver to Far Rockaway residents. Specifically, I’m seeking donations of water, food and clothing. I have a jeep, but I’m willing to rent a truck if the donations exceed all expectations.

I realize that we all have been hit hard by the effects of Sandy, including me. However, I consider myself one of the lucky ones because I haven’t been hit as hard as others. If there is anybody out there that would like to help me in my effort, please contact me at djbassking1963@yahoo.com.  

Sincerely,

“Joe B.”
