A Community Service Project in New Orleans!

New Orleans Area Habitat for Humanity

Through the dedication and hard work of residents and volunteers from around the globe, downtown New Orleans is flourishing again. However, some residential neighborhoods outside the downtown area are still rebuilding more than three years after Hurricane Katrina.

ASHA is partnering with New Orleans area Habitat for Humanity, a non-profit organization, to provide ASHA members the opportunity to help revitalize homes in New Orleans on Wednesday, November 18. This is your chance to make a generous contribution of your time to families in our Convention host city and a great way to meet other ASHA members from around the country.
