Wade on Birmingham

10 reasons to volunteer on the Gulf Coast

[Back to Magic City Mission.]

  1. Birmingham loves Biloxi and New Orleans. We’ve always kept our Gulf Coast neighbors close to our hearts.
  2. You want to help, but don’t know how. Just sign up. We take care of the rest.
  3. You don’t need much. Clothes, sleeping bag, spending money. That’s it.
  4. It won’t cost that much. About $120 to $200 for a full week (includes transportation, meals and housing).
  5. You work hard. Rebuilding a city isn’t easy, but we’ll show you how to do it.
  6. You play hard. At day’s end, relax, go out, have fun. It’s up to you.
  7. It’s fun. A half million volunteers agree, so don’t miss out.
  8. It’s empowering. After this week, you’ll know there’s nothing you can’t do.
  9. They need you. It’s up to volunteers to help residents still waiting 2 years after Katrina.
  10. We need you. Show them that Birmingham hasn’t forgotten them.
