Louisiana

Thank you for volunteering with us! Below are a few things you can expect during your stay.

Sleeping Arrangements

• You will need to bring either a cot or an air mattress.
• We have a large conference room with tile floors that serves as the primary sleeping area. If you do not bring a cot or air mattress, you should expect to sleep on the floor.
• There is one large sleeping room for men and a smaller room for women.

Living Conditions

Please remember that this is a disaster response operation. Accommodations are functional, but they will not be as comfortable as your home. Expect basic disaster-response living conditions and be prepared to be flexible.

Showers and Hygiene

• We have a shower trailer available on-site.
• Towels are provided.
• Please bring your own personal hygiene items.

Laundry Service

We have a washer and dryer available, and laundry service is provided.

How it works:

1. Wait until you have approximately a full load of laundry.
2. Place your laundry in a bag and clearly label it with your name.
3. Drop it off at the designated location.
4. Your laundry will be washed, dried, folded, and returned to the pickup table, usually later that evening or the following day.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. We appreciate your willingness to serve and look forward to working with you.
