If You are in need of help in southwest Louisiana –
While every effort is made to keep this page accurate. We are Human. This page DOES NOT contain all of the projects or identifying information related to the survivors without their consent. We do our best to update and keep this page current. Thank You for your understanding. This project is a work in progress. OUr goal is to help as many people as possible with the resources we have and what generous people like you are willing to donate. Thank You.
We are in need of people to help clean up all of the debris strewn everywhere. Part of helping rebuild a healthy, sustainable, LOCAL, strong community is cleaning up the surrounding area, so that it doesn’t look like a war zone.
FYI:
We do NOT disclose the actual addresses to the sites needing the above described help, except to those volunteering to help with that specific project. We typically will meet those volunteering to help at a central location (like the community center or Brown’s Grocery) and provide specific addresses and directions at that time. This prevents the homeowners or residents form being repeatedly contacted about help, as well provides some level of dignity in that the fact that they have requested help is not posted for the whole world to see on the internet. All volunteers must sign a liability waiver, and wear appropriate attire. Close toed shoes, gloves, eye protection (if needed for specific task). Thank you for your understanding.
