Rebuilding New Orleans Together

Volunteer Project
Help Rebuild New Orleans!


The Breakbulk Transportation Conference & Exhibition is offering attendees the opportunity to help rebuild some of the homes and areas in New Orleans that were devastated by Hurricane Katrina. The event will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 14, 2008. Volunteers can work all day or a half day. We are looking for volunteers to perform light carpentry, painting and landscaping in devastated neighborhoods. Buses will transport volunteers to and from the job site. Lunch will be provided by the Port of New Orleans and disposable clothing will be the best attire. All materials and tools will be furnished on the job site. We recommend you bring your own work gloves. For more information or to sign up, contact Program Director, Janet Plume, at jplume@joc.com or 504-866-7076.
