If HFH had sent me skiing, I would have been willing to wear a shirt.

Remove NOPSAM to email me. Please let me know if you have posted also.

A local supervisor, moved over to the international wing of HFH. He's been sent to Hurricane Katrina ravaged areas. They told him there was no housing, but rumor has it HFH promised him his own tent.

Funny thing is he joked about it, and if it's true, he's a real hero for taking the position to help the hurricane victims.

Hi...

I've been trying to volunteer down in the gulf for Katrina rebuilding for several weeks. All my emails to Habitat national and the regional Alabama and Mississippi affiliates have gone unanswered. Seems like nobody's interested in a lone volunteer. I've talked to a couple of people who've gone as part of, say, 10-person groups from a church or a rotary club, but I don't belong to either.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to find a project for a week as a single volunteer? Don't mind tent or sleeping bag.

Thanks _mark

First, I do not WORK for HFH.

Second, talk to your local chapter. They were advertising for individual volunteers to go down to Jackson, Miss. They offered barracks like a commidations and a couple meals. Rumor has it, food was being donated above what HFH was giving, so you could get several meals. ;)

Third, look at the actual HFH website, I found this request for volunteers in Ga.

Remember, I do not represent HFH, so you need to do what you are doing, ask around. Just to the right people.

Good luck,

tom
