Nassau County Executive Thomas S. Gulotta is again calling upon the residents of Nassau to help the earthquake victims of El Salvador. January 2001 will be remembered as tragic times in the history of El Salvador as horrific earthquakes hit, shattering the lives of many people, and leaving death and devastation in their midst. Three major earthquakes struck El Salvador's capital city, San Salvador, leaving approximately 1,000,000 homeless, and thousands dead in its quake.
Devastation is extensive and help is desperately needed.
Citing the tremendous generosity that Nassau has shown in the past, County Executive Tom Gulotta called upon residents to provide any monetary assistance they can. I encourage the residents of Nassau County to help the victims of these devastating earthquakes.
