Get a Banner and a Group


(AP- Sept. 3: Tanisha Blevin, 5, holds the hand of Nita LaGarde, 105, as they leave the Convention Center in New Orleans. )

When I see pictures like this it makes my heart melt. To see what is left in the wake of this disaster compells me to action. As you may know by now, we've created a site where you can gather and register a group to volenteer for Hurricane relief. At this time we're attempting to assemble groups to go into the affected regions in 2-10 months and help with rebuilding of homes through Habitat for Humanity.

In addition we will be looking to team up with other relief organizations who need volunteers.

I'd love to see all of my readers partner with us in this effort. You can basically do 3 things right now:

1. Pray for our efforts. (WeWillGo.net)
2. Sign up on the site to gather and lead a group (read the FAQ's for details)
3. Spread the Word. Host a Banner (also on our site) and send out an email to your friends on our behalf.


I urge you to do your part this Labor day. As we relax in our homes with family we must remember our fellow citizens who no longer have their family or a home. Please take a moment to get involved in this grass-roots campaign.

Thanks everyone!
