It's March and thousands of college students have escaped the northern snows! Rather than heading to beaches, many have come to New Orleans to help with gutting houses, park clean-ups and building. It is enough to restore one's faith in humanity!
This week we worked with a wonderful crew from The University of New Hampshire. They drove down in a crowded van, stayed at Camp Hope and kept their sense of humor through it all, despite a few cases of bronchitis and mono.
Note to the UNH crew--if you want to check out what we do in our "real lives" go to www.basicnecessities.us to see our shop and link to our farm. Come see us if you come to Virginia.
