Our showcase green affordable housing initiative in the Lower Ninth Ward is well under underway and our first home is open as a visitor center. But we still need to raise $5 million dollars to complete the 22 units of housing and the community center, as well as the ongoing operations there. You can help by nominating the "Rebuilding New Orleans Green" project TODAY! Please note, you can nominate the project through August 31st.
