A non profit organization created for MT's Helping MT's.
Answering the call of an Angel after hurricane Sandy, a group of MT's led by Massage Pro C.E. owner Gloria Coppola came together to help our colleagues who lost their equipment in the storm.
Our mission is to help our colleagues during times of disaster for their immediate and temporary needs. Ex. Massage tables, food gift cards.
Our future plan is to also offer Free education for conscious touch to survivors and disaster relief massage for those that choose to give massage during these times to emergency crews.
Join us! Volunteer or contribute for the greatest cause ~ YOU!

I originally came from NJ, in fact I was just there and left three days before Sandy hit. I was sad to see all the wonderful places down by the Jersey shore that were destroyed. I spent many happy times there while I was growing up and during my young adult years. I now live in the Chicago area but I will never forget all the great times I had in Jersey. Would love to help in any way I can!

I'm a newly minted LMT, trying to build my business, one client at a time. I'm unable to contribute money at this time, but will forward the links to my school, and urge the corporation to become a sponsor.
