Problem

After Hurricane Katrina, houses were gutted from floor to ceiling which included all appliances, walls, doors and cabinetry. Cabinets are expensive, however they are easy for our volunteer teams to install.

The Gift

This gift will provide funding for cabinets that must be replaced in all of the houses we rebuild, to be installed by groups of volunteers. Using principles of Universal Design, we ensure the kitchens and bathrooms of our homeowners' houses are safe, comfortable and easy to use regardless of age or ability so they can enjoy their homes for years to come.
