Magic City Mission: Live from Biloxi
Tuesday, November 6th, 2007
Eight volunteers from Birmingham are working this week
to rebuild Biloxi and New Orleans.
We made it to the Gulf Coast, and we couldn’t have done it without you.
I’m spending the week in Biloxi with two more Birmingham residents. Our other team of five is staying in New Orleans. The eight of us are volunteering this week as part of the Magic City Mission, a partnership with nonprofit volunteer agency Hands on Birmingham.
Thanks to your generosity, we raised $1,390, which paid for our transportation costs as well as food and shelter at Camp Hope in New Orleans and Hands on Gulf Coast in Biloxi. But it also provided hundreds of dollars for both agencies plus St. Bernard Project in New Orleans, money to use at their discretion.
We’d also like to thank Curtis Palmer and TechBirmingham for donating three laptops to these agencies. And thanks also to Birmingham-Southern College for providing our parking.
So let me tell you about the trip so far …
