Flood waters rising in St Bernard Parish as the levees give way following Hurricane Katrina.

Support the Community Center of St Bernard!

Target:
Help the Katrina Recovery Effort in St Bernard Parish, Louisiana
As they undertake one of the most daunting disaster recovery efforts this nation has ever seen, the people of St. Bernard have very practical needs. They need laundry facilities so they can keep themselves and their children clean. They need phones so they can maintain contact with family members scattered across the country. They need internet connections so they can find information about rebuilding their businesses and their homes. They need a centralized location for services so they can receive donated supplies and assistance easily and with dignity. And they need a place to come together daily to enjoy a hot, nutritious meal and share their ongoing frustrations and successes with their neighbors. The Community Center of St Bernard is dedicated to providing hurricane survivors with the recovery resources they need in a safe and all-inclusive setting.

I am willing to do whatever I can to assist in the recovery of St. Bernard Parish. I lived there many years ago and loved it. The entire parish was like one family. I want to help bring that feeling back.
