Although it’s been years since Hurricanes Rita and Katrina virtually leveled the Mississippi Gulf Coast, thousands of families still live in FEMA trailers. On behalf of its members, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans has committed $2.5 million to Habitat for Humanity of the Mississippi Gulf Coast to build up to 40 homes—nearly all in one community—and contribute to the affiliate's ability to serve more families.
This investment in a Mississippi Gulf Coast community is possible because of the power of Thrivent Financial membership. Imagine the impact you and other Thrivent Financial members can make in that area!
If you are age 18 or older, you can recruit a team of volunteers—one of 60 we hope to send this year—on a Thrivent Builds Worldwide Gulf Coast Community volunteer work trip. You’ll have fun meeting other Thrivent Financial members who have common values and interests. And you’ll create lifelong friendships and stronger communities.
