The Magnolia Project is a student, staff and faculty initiative committed to raise on-campus awareness of the injustices surrounding Hurricane Katrina and to serve the disenfranchised, low-income communities of the region by supporting political campaigns, providing mini-grants to non-profits in the area, and organizing service trips. We are a resource for all campus members who feel compelled to take action.
We are Berkeley students who are motivated by our personal, first-hand service experiences in the Gulf Coast to advocate a more comprehensive approach to relief work. We emphasize not only understanding of the immediate causes and consequences of Katrina, but also the education of its larger implications nationwide.
Please contact magnolia.katrina@gmail.com if you would like to get involved.
