Working in partnership with the Lousiana Conference of the United Methodist Church and Mennonite Disaster Services (MDS), we completely rebuilt 46 houses this quarter. MDS deployed an amazing group of volunteers from Disaster Aid Ohio from January through the end of March. In the spirit of partnership, we also incorporated SWLA Responds and The Episcopal Diocese of Western Louisiana. We were able to reach homes throughout Calcasieu Parish including DeQuincy, Lake Charles, and Sulphur. Approximately one-half of these were major repairs and the other half were remove and replacement of the roof. This partnership was such a grand success that we'll repeat the rebuild this fall.
