NEW YORK, NY – OCTOBER 30: People look through the remains of homes destroyed during Hurricane Sandy on October 30, 2012 in the Breezy Point Neighborhood of the Queens borough of New York City. At least 40 people were reportedly killed in the U.S. by Sandy as millions of people in the eastern United States have awoken to widespread power outages, flooded homes and downed trees.

Want to feel good this holiday season? Take a trip over to SecretSandy.org. You can buy gifts and toys for a little girl or boy who lost all of theirs during Hurricane Sandy.

So many of us are back to normal. We’ve cleaned up the trees in our yards and have our power back on and for us, it’s like it never happened. But for people in the hardest hit areas of Staten Island, Breezy Point, the Rockaways and New Jersey, they are shoveling out debris that includes all their kids toys, Wiis, Nintendo DS games and favorite stuffed animals and games.

But it’s the holidays!! And Santa can find kids no matter where they are staying and you can help him out by becoming a Secret Sandy Santa to help put a smile on the kids’ face this Christmas.

Joy Huang and Kimberley Berdy created the website SecretSandy.org to let kids who were the hardest hit by Sandy put in their requests for the things they want most and you can anonymously make sure they have everything their little hearts desire.
