Celebrities are turning to Twitter to urge people to get people involved in relief efforts to help those affected most by Hurricane Sandy.
Project Runway judge Nina Garcia, who lives and works in New York City, was avidly tweeting throughout the storm, informing people about the evacuations taking place in New York City hospitals and ways to help victims.
“Please RT-You can text REDCROSS to 90999 to donate $10 to American Red Cross Disaster Relief #Sandy,” Garcia posted on Monday.
Later that evening she retweeted the post, urging people to show their support for those in need.
“Last tweet before going to bed,” she wrote. “Show your solidarity.”
Like Garcia, New York City native Jennifer Lopez also tweeted her fans about staying safe and getting involved with the Red Cross.
The singer was across the globe performing her “Dance Again” tour in Rotterdam, Holland.
“If you need a safe place to stay, shelter info avail. In #RedCrossHurrucanApp #Sandy,” JLO posted.
Fellow Boricua actress Rosario Dawson fervently thanked the authorities for attempting to keep those in flooded areas safe.
“Big thank you to all our police/fire fighters/public servants!” posted the star, who, like JLO, was born and raised in New York City. She then retweeted a fan’s photo showing NYPD cars and streets in Manhattan fully flooded.
