Volunteers play a vital role in the rebuilding of a community. Volunteers not only help build clients’ homes but they also provide our clients with support and encouragement during the emotional rebuilding process. There has been an impressive amount of volunteers, yet the need is still great in Plaquemines Parish. Thousands of families still struggle to get back into their homes.

CPR has three bunk houses (each can accommodate up to 24 workers) to house volunteers. In addition, several churches have housing accommodations for volunteers. This will eliminate the daily travel time for volunteer crews to go from the volunteer housing to the work sites. The average cost charged to volunteers or their organizations would be $20/week per person. Volunteers will also be responsible for their own meals; however an equipped kitchen is available for cooking.
