Tribute To The People of New Orleans Survivors of KATRINA

Victims of Hurricane Katrina are working to rebuild their lives from this massive natural disaster. Thousands of lives, homes and countless personal items have been lost in the devastation. As the proud people of Louisiana and the Gulf Coast Region move to get back on their feet, PeleJA feels an obligation to help. With that in mind, PeleJA and his family have started the PeleJA Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund to aid those in need in the wake of this horrific storm. The PeleJA Hurricane Relief Fund will be used to provide aid and assistance to the people of New Orleans, Louisiana and the Gulf Coast region affected by Hurricane Katrina. An independent Board of Directors will be formed to allocate and administer these funds to the affected people. Please help the victims of Hurricane Katrina get their lives back in order as we look to help rebuild and renew the vibrancy of our city, state and region.
