lowernine.org is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization teaching home rebuilding to volunteers and community residents; facilitating access to social services; working with youth; and experimenting with models of sustainable economic development in the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans, LA.

Please take some time to explore our site and see how we are helping to rebuild New Orleans, and importantly, see how you can help. We have a chance, now, to build a solid foundation upon which the residents of the Lower Nine, and every other affected neighborhood, can stand, as they recover from the storm and remake their communities stronger than before.
