After Hurricane Katrina, as with most disasters, people around the world wanted to help. They donated money, supplies and opened their homes to refugees. People went to the afflicted areas with various organizations to volunteer their time.

While many were placing blame and pointing out holes in relief plans, others took action. They went to afflicted areas to join the relief and recovery effort. Many went weith established organizations while others went on their own and initiative and drew on their own resources. Often, friends, family and communities responded with support and supplies to help those who went.
