Now that days have passed, everyone has been awed by the destruction and devastation of Hurricane Sandy. The damage is more than anyone could have imagined and weighs heavy on all of our hearts. It is in times of adversity that there is an opportunity for everyone to contribute in some way. Locally, here at the Jersey Shore, it is inspiring to see people come together and support their friends and neighbors.

Hatteras was founded in Manasquan in 1983 and has operated in Monmouth County, New Jersey since its beginnings. Each year we produce a calendar that we gift to our clients. This year is a celebration of our 30th year and is themed "Greetings from Hatteras" with each month highlighting a different Jersey shore town.

Returning to work, we sadly stared at our 2013 calendars and decided we needed to take action. While flipping through the months, and viewing the images, we realized the hurricane destroyed so many of the places we have all grown to love. Tough roads lie ahead in the effort to restore the Shore. We need to unite and use this time of adversity to show our true strength. As a tribute to everything great about the shores of New Jersey, we are offering our calendars for purchase of $25. 100% of all profits will be distributed among charitable organizations in the 14 communities featured in the calendar. Spread the word and help us exceed our goal of raising $150,000 to help restore the Shore.
