Red Cross Provides Hot Meals on Wheels

Chicken breast with potatoes...beef stew...spaghetti, how does that sound for lunch?  While it may sound like a menu at a fancy restaurant, this is actually the menu for Red Cross.  The organization provided hot meals on wheels thorughout the neighborhood in the days following Hurricane's Gustav and Ike. 

Community Action Meeting in the Wake of Hurricane Gustav

There was no time for uncertaintly as Hurricane Gustav traveled closer to the Gulf Coast.  The community needed answers!  Just days before the storm made landfall, community officials and neighbors gathered at NENA to discuss evacuation plans for our neighbors, and preparedness plans for our government.  After the meeting, the NENA staff walked the neighborhood, passing out valuable information and encouraging residents to get their evacuation plans in order.     

NENA Remembers August 29, 2005

It's been three years, but the many scars have yet to heal.  Many people have yet to return and it's evident that things will never be the same.  But each year, the citizens of the lower 9th ward renew their vows, never to forget loved ones...never to forget the Lower 9th ward we knew and loved before Hurricane Katrina.
