neighborhoods are still rebuilding in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.
We have partnered with Beacon of Hope to provide
conference attendees an opportunity to go to Lakewood area
neighborhoods to be part of this rebuilding process. A chartered
bus will pickup volunteers from the conference hotel, take them to the
work site, and return them to the hotel. A bag lunch will be
provided on the bus. There is a $50 fee to participate. Learn
