In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, neighbors across Brooklyn and Queens provided support for each
other in a time of need. We saw local communities pulling together, neighbors supporting neighbors and the
helping hand of strangers. Proving that no matter how severe this storm was, it was no match for the resolve
and charity of New Yorkers.
Flushing Bank has been helping local communities for over 80 years and is proud to provide continued
support of the relief efforts after the storm.
