PKPR was proud to work with The Knight Foundation on promoting the amazing service that Knight News Challenge winner Recovers.org provided in New York City in the aftermath of super storm Sandy.

Developed by two sisters whose town was upended by a tornado last year, Recovers.org has been instrumental in jumpstarting recovery across the city, moving masses of people and goods from where they showed up to where they were needed most. Coverage ranged from Huffington Post (With Recovers.org, Two Sisters Revolutionize Disaster Relief) to Aol Government.
