Archdiocese of New Orleans Sets Up Account to Receive Funds from Other Dioceses
NEW ORLEANS (September 13, 2005)—Archbishop Alfred C. Hughes of the Archdiocese of New Orleans requests prayers and support for archdiocesan efforts to aid those displaced by Hurricane Katrina. The Archdiocese of New Orleans has set up a Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund to provide for basic assistance to persons displaced from the greater New Orleans area and for those who are responding to the needs of the displaced.
A significant number of archdiocesan churches, parishes, schools, and other community service facilities have been greatly affected by the hurricane. The Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund will help the archdiocese to continue to serve the people of New Orleans and make the rebuilding process possible.
