Seven years ago tomorrow, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans and much of the Gulf Coast region, wreaking havoc in so very many ways. Though much rebuilding has taken place much of Gentilly, East New Orleans and the Lower Ninth are regions still working to regain their original vitality.
Not much can be said as another hurricane approaches, though it's suppose to be much less intense, other than we wish for the very best for all the citizens in the city and surrounding area. For me, and many of our donor and volunteers, the good people of NOLA are, in many respects, family.
Our charity started its work by aiding the residents and forty three of NOLA's schools. It has been a great joy to see so many families and schools grow in the aftermath of Katrina. One can only hope that the city and its residents will be spared the heartbreak that took place seven years ago.
Our thoughts, concerns and prayers are with you.
Dick
