Volunteering in New Orleans
Make a difference! Volunteer to work rebuilding the hard-hit 9th Ward of New Orleans. There are many volunteer tasks for people of all ages, and much work to be done to restore the ruins. Schedule your trip at your convenience; go safely on your own or with friends and family members (great experience for teens). For more info, visit Common Ground Relief; read Rev. Brooks' sermon about her volunteer experience, "Common Ground," on our Sermons page; or see the Nantucket Inquirer & Mirror.

As a volunteer host family with The Fresh Air Fund, you will help a child enjoy the simple pleasures of a summer away from hot city streets. More info: 1-800-367-0003 or visit www.freshair.org.
