When u belong to a community like New Orleans all u need is hope and support, Those of u from 3rd world countries know what I'm talking bout, Many organizations come and go, So it means a lot when some stay and help u after the camera's have Gone.

Haiti is facing the same problem. U barely see them on the News anymore,
If it wasn't for Wyclef trying to run for President i wonder if we would still be hearing about the pple of Haiti.

If it had been for the Gulf Oil Spill would New Orleans still be in the Spot light.

Good Look Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, They bought a place out in NOLA so they can help the city rebuild and grow again






Make It Right

Brad Pitt promised families he visited in New Orleans to rebuild and to stay dedicated to the area long after the cameras were gone. Make It Right has been building storm-resistant, green homes for families who lost everything.

St. Bernard Project


Co-founded in 2006 by Zack Rosenburg and Liz McCartney (CNN's 2008 Hero of the Year), the St. Bernard Project helps rebuild homes and provides mental health care for individuals still struggling with the economic emotional stress left in Katrina's wake. On the fourth anniversary of Katrina, President Obama praised the St. Bernard Project and their continuing work in the region.

Habitat For Humanity

Over 100,000 people have volunteered to rebuild homes in New Orleans through Habitat For Humanity since Hurricane Katrina. They've built new homes for over 300 families and are still seeking donations to keep their programs running for years to come.

ASPCA

The Louisiana chapter of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) has provided aid to pet owners since the disaster and prepares them to take care of their little friends during a disaster. Since the oil spill, the Louisiana SPCA has raised money to care for animals who've been relinquished by their owners, a trend that has increased in the tough economy.

Catholic Charities


In the above video, Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans boasts that it's distributed $55 million in direct assistance and 250 million pounds of food. They say they're not first responders, but "forever responders."

HandsOn New Orleans

HandsOn programs were established in New Orleans and Mississippi after Katrina and Rita (with a grant from the previously mentioned CNCS. Tens of thousands of volunteers have since given over 500,000 hours of time to a diverse range of projects: from engaging young leaders in volunteer projects to helping out in local libraries.
