Notes
Camp Hope's gutting operations have ended! We are transitioning into rebuilding and new construction, but before new construction begins, we are helping with various civic projects across St. Bernard. Please call or e-mail us for more details at: camphope@habitat-nola.org
We are very excited about the opening of Camp Hope, which is a school that has been converted into a housing unit for volunteers. You will be approximately
twenty minutes from New Orleans. You will need to arrange for your own transportation, there are rental car discounts available and taxi and carpooling information on the website. Volunteers must be 18 or older. Volunteers provide their own bedding, towels and toiletries.
