Your Chances are Running thin!!
The Phoenix of New Orleans began after Hurricane Katrina, born from the damage and neglect of an obscure, historically poor downtown neighborhood called TulaneGravier; the Phoenix of New Orleans was set-up to be both a neighborhood association and a self-determined sustainable development organization that would plow ahead and rebuild the area and help meet the needs of its neighbors.
This is an interactive organization, with critical contributions from donors in both money and ideas. Volunteers are the labor we need to effectively rebuild better than before.
If you’d like to volunteer with us, we can offer you two options.
a) 3-months summer term volunteering in July,
August, September, October (must serve 12 consecutive weeks)
through AmeriCorps including a modest living
allowance of $2650 and an education
award of $1181.
NOTE: CORRECTLY COMPLETED APPLICATIONS MUST BE RETURNED TO
The Phoenix of New Orleans BY JUNE 15th.
c) 1-4 week short term volunteering you can sign up for
anytime, but at least 3 weeks prior to start of work -
this is not an Americorps program.
2. Can you arrange your own housing in New Orleans?
We offer a housing solution for $50 / week to both our summer-term AmeriCorps volunteers and our short-term volunteers (for details see attached document).
3. Do you bring any skill that you would like to apply
while volunteering with us? Do you have any allergies or physical impairments that would exclude specific tasks? If so, please let us know in brief.
If you’d like to sign up as a volunteer or if you have questions, please feel free to send an email to director@pnola.org, attn. of Yasmin Aksu who is in
charge of our volunteer corps.
