Gulf Coast Hurricane Relief Toolkit
Volunteering on the Gulf Coast
There are some that have felt the call to volunteer in rebuilding the Gulf Coast, devastated from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005. It is not too late for you to make a difference and contribute to rebuilding the area devastated by the worst natural disaster in US history. There are opportunities with our sister organizations, Hands On Gulf Coast and Hands On New Orleans to volunteer. Whether you want to go by yourself to join other volunteers at one of these organizations, or want to facilitate getting a group of friends or coworkers to volunteer, there are resources and opportunity for you to help be the change.
