The Pearlington Project Katrina Foundation, Inc.






The Pearlington Project Katrina Foundation, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit foundation. Its mission is simple: To build permanent homes for the residents of Pearlington, Mississippi, who lost their homes in Hurricane Katrina.
Pearlington, Mississippi is a small, rural, unincorporated community. As such, there is no government to advocate for these citizens and no recovery plan. There are tremendous inequities in how aid and resources are distributed. The major aid organizations, including those that would normally rebuild homes after a disaster, have left Pearlington, even though many families—including those with children and frail elderly people—still have no permanent homes and no prospects for housing. And, most urgently, at the end of February 2007—just a few months from now—FEMA will come to reclaim its trailers—the only shelter most residents of this rural, unincorporated community have.

Check out there website just click on the link. I attached a few pictures fro Mississippi when I went to Biloxi. I could not understand the devastation until I went and saw it with my own eyes.
