Finished off the week painting the exterior of an opportunity house. The house is for sale to a New Orleans family within a required income bracket and with special financing terms. This ensures that all people can afford quality housing and it provides Saint Bernard Project with some cash flow, I think.
As you can see, the ASB group is a team. We lent a hand by volunteering and our hands learned new motor skills, our hearts learned new forms of caring and we opened our minds to learning outside the classroom.
If you come to New Orleans do three things:
Volunteer or be of service.
Enjoy the city, there are many fun things to experience.
Go home and tell the truth about NOLA in a balanced story between hedonism and a community in need.
