Organization Information

Mission Statement

Beyond volunteerism: Fostering habits of the mind and habits of the heart through the facilitation of volunteer experiences in New Orleans.

Description

In 2005, Elan Ministries established a disaster relief branch of the ministry in response to the tragic destruction of the Gulf Coast caused by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Thus, HisHands2Go came into being with a 10 year commitment to assist churches and individuals in re-establishing themselves in their community. We have upheld this commitment by hosting the flood of volunteers that have come to serve and connecting them with churches, families, and individuals in need of assistance. Since 2005, HisHands2Go has hosted more than 4,000 volunteers, which calculates to over 120,000 man hours of labor! The number of churches, families, and individuals assisted is in the hundreds.

The 10 yr. anniversary of Hurricane Katrina was celebrated in 2015, marking the conclusion of HisHands2Go's initial commitment. However, HisHands2Go is still going strong hosting volunteer teams and connecting them with service opportunities in New Orleans.
