SJUW Provides Funding To Support Rebuilding Effort

St. John United Way presented the faith-based rebuilding group, Eight Days of Hope, with a $95,000 donation on Sunday, March 10th.

The donation was provided to assist with rebuilding materials and program expenses for the organization's large scale rebuilding project schedule for St. John Parish from March 9 to March 16.

Eight Days of Hope has recruited approximately 2500 volunteers from throughout the nation and four countries to help rebuild over 300 homes devastated by Hurricane Isaac.

At the volunteer welcome event held on Sunday, Steve Tybor, EDOH President, stated that over 100 projects have been completed in two days.  

St. John United Way is excited to support this organization and its work to spread hope throughout St. John Parish and help families rebuild.
