Hurricane Ida Relief Giveaways: a Success!

During the last two Saturdays (September 18 and 25), the Urban League of Louisiana, along with Thrive New Orleans, Pepsi Co, National Urban League, National Urban League Young Professionals, Houston Area Urban League, Mississippi Urban League, Shell, Convoy of Care, CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort), Urban League of Louisiana Young Professionals and ESSENCE.

We Were able to provide Hurricane Ida Relief Giveaways at Thrive 9 Community Center in the Upper Ninth Ward.

Thanks to the tremendous outpouring of donations and our hard-working volunteers, we were able to serve over 800 families impacted by Hurricane Ida.

Families were provided with tarps, water, diapers, non-perishable food items, clothing, toiletries, feminine products and cleaning supplies.

We are so very grateful to our local partners and those who traveled from across the country to offer their hands-on help to a storm-ravaged community in need.
