Oprah's Angel Lane wouldn't be possible without Habitat for Humanity and the dedicated volunteers. Lowe's provided jam-packed toolboxes to each family to help get the building party started!

Once the building begins, Oprah plans to construct a playground and community center on Angel Lane. What do the kids want in their new play area? Slides, swings, basketball hoops…and air conditioning!

How You Can Join the Superstorm Sandy Relief Effort Right Now

It's never too late to help after a natural disaster like Superstorm Sandy. Every donation helps, no matter how small your contribution is. The people who suffer the consequences of these disasters need our help long after the news cameras leave the devastated areas. We've compiled a list of 13 ways you can contribute to the Sandy relief effort right now. Click on the names of the organizations below to go directly to their websites. <a href="http://www.redcross.org/hurricane-sandy" target="_b"> 1. American Red Cross</a> The Red Cross continues to focus on reaching as many people as possible who need their help. Getting supplies, meals and water into affected areas is the top priority. Financial donations make the greatest and most immediate impact, helping the Red Cross provide shelter, food, emotional support and other assistance to those affected by disasters like Hurricane Sandy. <a href="http://www.globalgiving.org/projects/hurricane-sandy-relief-fund/" target="_b">2. Hurricane Sandy Relief Fund</a> Hurricane Sandy has caused massive destruction and dislocation along the East Coast of the United States and extensive flooding in the Caribbean. This fund supports relief efforts by organizations working in multiple locations, including the River Fund in New York, International Medical Corps in Haiti, and Save the Children across impacted areas, to provide emergency assistance to those in need. Specific project distributions will be communicated as allocations are made. <a href="http://www.riverfund-ny.org/" target="_b">3. The River Fund New York</a> For 18 of their 21 years, the River Fund New York has been operating the only mobile pantry program in New York City, taking care of extremely needy families in New York's most desperate communities. As a result of this depth of experience and well-practiced teams, they have been, in many instances, the first food providers to get into the areas hardest hit by Superstorm Sandy. Their mobile pantry operations get in and set up in minutes and begin serving substantial quantities of ready-to-eat foods. <a href="http://www.kidsdonations.org/home.php" target="_b">4. KIDS Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Fund</a> Since 1985, Kids in Distressed Situations (KIDS) has responded to natural disasters quickly and effectively. Their response to Hurricane Sandy is well underway, and they need your help to ensure that families living in New York, New Jersey and West Virginia receive warm winter clothing, coats, shoes, undergarments, blankets and baby products to endure the harsh winter weather. <a href="http://fuelrelieffund.org/" target="_b">5. Fuel Relief Fund</a> Fuel Relief Fund is a nonprofit charitable organization that provides free fuel immediately after a major disaster. They are currently deploying to the New Jersey coastline to provide free fuel for those in need. Primarily, the gas and diesel fuel will be given to individuals and other nonprofit agencies for use in generators and vehicles. One hundred percent of funds raised for the relief effort is used to purchase fuel. <a href="http://www.worldconcern.org/" target="_b">6. Help Hurricane Sandy Survivors Rebuild</a> World Concern is responding directly to aid families affected by Hurricane Sandy in Haiti, where more than 50 people lost their lives and 18,000 families are left homeless by this historic storm. In the United States, they're responding through partner organizations and local churches to reach needy families with emergency assistance. <a href="http://www.mercycorps.org/" target="_b">7. Relief and Recovery for Haiti Disaster Survivors</a> Mercy Corps continues to assist the survivors of disasters in Haiti, including working through their existing microinsurance organization to ensure thousands get the funds they desperately need to rebuild after Superstorm Sandy.
