Destruction from hurricane Katrina and Gustov including, homes, churches, communities, and even beaches. We are trying to help people put there lives back togeather years later when the help is still needed more than ever. Homes are still laying in ruins. personal items are still strewn about yards and lives lay in shambles. We come and help with whatever needs to be done; painting, building, putting down floors, sealing, moving debris, and clean-up.

I am trying to get college students to give more of their time and/or money to charity events instead of wasting it on Friday nights. I am the organizer of all of the events for the Biology Club at my school. We have raised money for countless biology related charities such as: Ronald McDonald House, Relay for Life, National Breast Cancer Foundation, Chatham County Humane Society along with others.

Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Based on statistics from the World Bank, 78% of Haitians live on less than $2.00 per day and 54% live on less than $1.00 per day. Life expectancy is about 52 years. I want to change all that and help provide a quality education, from preschool through high school, to produce responsible productive graduates, and to improve their lives through various ministries, and raise money for the public schools in the village of Montrouis, Haiti.

There were and still are, many people suffering from hurricane Katrina's effects. Many people had their homes destroyed. Jobs were lost. People and animals were killed. At the time people were still without food and water. Our goal was just to raise money to provide some food and water for a few people.
