MSU students volunteer in New Orleans

Posted online
More than 100 Missouri State University students will spend their spring break next week cleaning up hurricane-affected areas in New Orleans.

Volunteers leave Saturday by bus and will spend the following week cleaning up debris left in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.

The trip is funded partly by $10,700 from the MSU Student Organization Funding Allocation Council. A handful of other MSU student organizations, along with Habitat for Humanity – New Orleans Area, are sponsoring the trip.

MSU’s Plaster Student Union donated water bottles, and the university’s Taylor Health and Wellness gave volunteers free tetanus shots.
