Katrina Aid Today assists more than 108,000 Katrina survivors
Katrina Aid Today has assisted 40,000 families to date with the value of services the program's partners have provided estimated at more than $20 million, according to a report on the progress of Katrina Aid Today based in Washington, D.C.
"Reaching 108,000 people is a great milestone for us," said Jim Cox, executive director of Katrina Aid Today. "But Katrina-affected families still need help, and we are expanding our outreach efforts across the country."
Survivors, who continue to need the most help, are people whom the storm displaced from their homes, according to the report.
Katrina Aid Today plans to assist about 60,000 more Katrina-affected families over the next year, and is funded through a $66 million grant to United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) and monitored by FEMA. -UMCOR
