Pickin' Up the Pieces (PUP) is working in conjunction with Camp
Coastal Outpost , the Pearlington Project, and Walls of Hope to
help rebuild the City of Pearlington, MS and other areas of
Hancock Co.

Hancock County is ground zero of Hurricane Katrina. We are currently
working to provide for the citizens of that county. Pickin' Up the
Pieces is assisting these groups by organizing groups of volunteers
to travel to the devastated area to help in this effort. We are
currently seeking both skilled and unskilled volunteers that are
interested in participating in one week rotations.

It has been a meaningful experience to those who have come to the
area and served in the many different capacities. It is very humbling
to work along side with someone who has lost their homes. People who
have been involved with Katrina disaster relief say that their lives
will forever be changed. We are committed to giving our brothers and
sisters hope. We plan to continue working in this area to help these
precious people rebuild their lives.

If you are interested in serving in Hancock County, please contact us.
In the weeks and months ahead we are going to need skilled people in
almost every area. You can contact us at linda@pickinupthepieces.org

Pickin' Up the Pieces accepts donations of supplies and financial gifts.
We are developing teams of volunteers who are interested in making distribution and rebuilding trips to the Gulf Coast. If you have a
trailer you are able to part with for a weekend, we can always use
additional hauling capacity. Most of all, you can help by sharing
your energy and your contacts. As a grassroots non-profit, Pickin'
Up the Pieces' success is founded on assistance from the community.
The greater our network of volunteers, the greater the need we can
meet.

One person helping another, one at a time
