03 July 2006 - New Orleans - Louisiana. Volunteers. Upper 9th ward. Student volunteers from Group Work Camps, a religious organisation helping to rebuild the city stand in the flooded driveway of a house on N. Dorgenois street where rubble, trash and debris block drains creating floods during one of the heaviest downpours since hurricane Rita. The City remains unprepared to handle heavy flooding. The students have given up their summer vacations to help residents of the city. The students come from far and wide, some from as far away as California, Seattle, New Jersey, Michigan, and Toronto.
