Clergy and community members rallied in the Bronx Monday to show support in the wake of a deadly hurricane and earthquake in Puerto Rico and Mexico.
The advocates rallied outside 161st Street and Grand Concourse.
Advocates say they are worried about their families back home and are asking the city do more to help.
They are asking local officials to set up a disaster relief program in the Bronx so that people can help or donate in the event of a disaster abroad.
