I am posting this here for my cousin Adam. He went to elementary school up here and now goes to San Francisco State. He went to China last summer. Now he is saving money to go to Louisiana to help with disaster relief. I am very proud of him:
Hey Oakhurst Area,
I'm writing to let you know that later this month I will be traveling to Louisiana with Habitat for Humanity to help build homes for people that were affected by Hurricane Katrina.
When I watched the devastation of Katrina on TV I wished that there was some way I could help. Then I saw an interview with Jimmy Carter wherein he spoke about his involvement with Habitat for Humanity and it sounded like a great idea. I feel very fortunate to have found a way to personally help those in need.
The cost to volunteer in this program is $900, this covers my food, lodging (cot in a church), as well as a donation to Habitat. In addition to this I am also responsible for my airfare. If you can help with a donation of any size I would really appreciate it. You can donate to Habitat in my name by clicking on this link:

If you prefer to send a check to me directly, send it in my name to the Oakhurst Online address:
