MTV is producing a one-hour fundraising special to encourage viewers to contribute to the rebuilding of Seaside Heights, home to the network's Jersey Shore series, which was devastated by Hurricane Sandy last week.

Restore the Shore will air live from MTV's Times Square Studio on Thursday, Nov. 15 at 11 p.m. ET and will feature the Jersey Shore cast as well as other guest appearances.

The fund will collect donations for the nonprofit Architecture for Humanity, which will provide design and construction services to rebuilding the Seaside Heights boardwalk.
