Plenty is a not-for-profit alternative relief and development organization founded in Tennessee in 1974. Plenty has managed projects in 15 countries on four continents with an emphasis on support of the world's native peoples and other disenfranchised people and our common environment. Plenty promotes appropriate and sustainable technologies such as small scale agriculture, nutrition, primary health care, clean water, alternative energy, and more. Recent disaster relief efforts have extended from Mayan villages in Guatemala to orphanages in tsunami stricken India. Plenty crews arrived in New Orleans just days after hurricane Katrina struck and are working there still, now primarily focused on helping families and individuals repair their damaged homes so they can move back.

Lean On Me, Inc. has been playing a instrumental role in the efforts to support the survivors of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. From the floors of the Houston Astrodome, Reliant Center, to small hotels and motels on the highways and biways, LOMI was there. By phone, by volunteer, or by the internet, we were able to successfully place hurricane survivors in over 40 open homes offered by loving fellow Americans. We continue to support our families in the Gulf region, and plan on being there for the long haul!! Our Rebuilding "The Big Easy" Project is focused on getting the citizens of New Orleans and surrounding areas out of the FEMA trailers and temporary housing, and back into their homes.
The mission of the St. Bernard Battered Women's Program, Inc. is to empower all survivors of domestic violence through strong programs that promote quality assurance and continuous growth to live independent lives free from power and control by other individuals. The services we offer include shelter placement, counseling, and referrals. We also provide legal information and advocacy. We offer information on Temporary Restraining Orders and assist in their filing for qualified survivors of domestic violence. Referrals for legal representation are also provided.
We are a coalition of nonprofit leaders in the Greater New Orleans area, unified with one voice to support, lead and fully participate in the recovery and rebuilding efforts following Hurricane Katrina. Please join us in sharing information, networking with each other and collaborating to move forward together, as a nonprofit sector. We meet weekly at Nonprofit Central on Mondays, 1824 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd., New Orleans, from 9:30-11:00am.
Founded in 1967 during the height of civil unrest, Trinity Christian
Community exists to help those most at-risk in our city become leaders
that will shape our city's future. Since Katrina TCC has become a center
of volunteerism and rebuilding. Over 1,500 homes have been repaired,
275,000 volunteer hours logged, 5,000 assisted through surveying and
direct aid and over $20,000,000 placed back into the economy. Our
AmeriCorps programs have helped schools rebuild and have placed vital
people resources into the rebuilding efforts.
The National Relief Network is proud to support St. Bernard Parish's Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts. The NRN organizes student volunteer disaster relief programs for high schools, colleges, universities, churches and synagogues across the country. From UCLA to NYU, student volunteers are finding that working with the NRN is not only a lot of hard work, it's also incredibly rewarding. The NRN is the only non-profit organization promoted by both the National Honor Society and the National Association of Student Council in Washington , DC for high school students who would like to lend a hand following Hurricane Katrina. Come and join us, from wild fires near San Diego to respite centers at 911's ground zero, and now along the Gulf Coast, our student volunteers rock the world in a wonderful way.
