Tuscaloosa Trip Info

We're set! Tuscaloosa, here we come!
Who wants to join us?

UABC is organizing a group to travel to Tuscaloosa in early August to work with Habitat for Humanity and help the city rebuild after the mile-and-a-half tornado ripped right through the city in the spring of 2011.  If you're interested or know someone else who might be, check out the Trip Information document.


The Commitment Form is here and is due by Monday, June 18th.


If you're thinking, "Hey, I thought they were going to Joplin," here's an explanation for the change.  While many organizations in Joplin are still needing volunteers, the Habitat projects have been filled by contractor-level workers, which means they aren't scheduling groups except for a day here or there.  We (UABC) have grown fond of working with Habitat, so we found that Tuscaloosa, which was also hit hard by storms in the spring of 2011, is eager to host and use volunteer groups.  So, while it's a different location and bit farther, it's the same idea.
