CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) -
A week after Sandy slammed into the northeastern coast, we are getting a picture of how widespread the damage really is, and how long it might take to rebuild.
Chris Fisher is a retired CMPD officer who now works at CFS Logistics in Charlotte. He issued a challenged to his former coworkers, and the general public.
Fisher and his company want to send a tractor-trailer full of supplies for the animals impacted by the storm. The supplies will be sent to officers and firefighters in the New York/New Jersey area.
That same tractor-trailer will also carry regular supplies to help the cleanup effort.
If you want to help, donations of the following items are requested:
- cat food, supplies

- bleach
- diapers
- socks
- boots
- rubber gloves

Donations can be dropped off at CFS Logistics, located at 3410 Oak Lake Boulevard in Charlotte, from 8am-5pm. The last day to donate is Wednesday, November 7th. The truck will leave Thursday morning.
