After Hurricane Katrina slammed the Gulf Coast on August 29, 2005, the company immediately mobilized to aid in the recovery effort. Since then, employees have provided critical emergency services and helped thousands of families with temporary housing and schools. One year later, work continues through a new contract with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
To date, my company has: hauled and installed more than 23,000 temporary homes for FEMA; constructed temporary schools in Mississippi that have allowed more than 8,000 children to return to school; helped plug dam levee breeches by providing specially designed sand-filled, 16,000-pound polypropylene fabric bags; remove thousands of tons of debris from the streets of New Orleans; and quickly get a Procter & Gamble manufacturing facility as well as other industrial sites back online.
Glad to be a part of this. Hopefully diaster doesn't strike again.
