Alternative Spring Break for SSU Students
There is a group of Sonoma State University students you will not find lounging on a beach during spring break. Instead, they will be just outside New Orleans, helping to restore Louisiana families to their homes from April 11-18.
Thirty-five students, including an advisor, will travel to St. Bernard Parish located southeast of New Orleans, to participate in Hurricane Katrina disaster relief. The SSU contingent will work in cooperation with the St. Bernard Project, a non-profit dedicated to bringing St. Bernard residents back to their Louisiana homes and rebuilding the lives of Hurricane Katrina survivors.
This will the third year the campus volunteer service organization called JUMP — Join Us Making Progress — is coordinating the program for Katrina relief.
