Pearlington: Still in great need

SunHerald.com : Pearlington: Still in great need:
"'If we hadn't had those volunteers, we wouldn't be here,' said Rodrick 'Rocky' Pullman, president of the Hancock County Board of Supervisors and longtime Pearlington resident. 'There's not many homes in Pearlington that were repaired that didn't get some assistance from some type of volunteers. They've impacted just about every person's life in Pearlington.'

Pullman said there were about 900 homes pre-Katrina and there are about 350 habitable to almost-habitable ones now."
This is where the majority of us will be working over spring break. Read the full article. They definitely need our help!

(Thanks to Dr. Bob for forwarding this to me).
