TMS 2008: Hands On New Orleans

YOU Can Make a Difference in New Orleans

Volunteer with TMS and “Hands On New Orleans” on Saturday, March 8, to make a direct impact on a community affected by Hurricane Katrina.

The city of New Orleans and the surrounding Gulf Coast region continue to recover from the effects of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. TMS is partnering with Hands On New Orleans to take a team of volunteers into a community still rebuilding from the hurricane. You can help in one or more school renovation projects, such as enhancing science and math classrooms, painting science labs and classrooms, or landscaping.

Hands On New Orleans is affiliated with the national Hands On Network and specializes in developing and implementing high impact service projects. Since the hurricane, the local organization has leveraged the power of more than 4,000 visiting volunteers who gave more than 500,000 hours of service to the recovery and rebuilding of the Gulf Coast.

Saturday’s Schedule:

• Continental breakfast and project orientation
• Volunteers transported to project site with equipment and supplies provided
• Lunch on-site
• Evening reception
