CAN-DO’s over all goal is to design a model for RCR’s (Community Revitalization Center’s) not only throughout the Gulf Coast but around the world. This center will be designed to facilitate registered, non profit organizations under one roof and with one common goal- to work together efficiently and responsibly. Organizations working within the center would fall under one 501c3. Rather than donating millions of dollars to one specific organization they can donate to several groups under one umbrella organization, eliminating any doubt that donations are being used ineffectively. This will prove to be an effective plan because it will not only hold organizations accountable for the amount of funds collected but will also eliminate the “Red Tape” and careless spending.

Pam and Jessica, and The North Face staff…the letter below is dedicated to you..To let you know just how much your work and donation have made a significant difference to people’s lives…We thank you very much. The North Face should be proud of their staff. We would like to, especially, thank Jesica Rivers and Pamela Bennett, from The North Face, who were so kind in helping us coordinate and make this happen. Thank you for all your unsurpassing effort from day one. Read more

More Tomorrow

Erik Summers (web administrator, can-do)

Adventurer and explorer Brian Brawdy has teamed up with Eric Klein and Can-do. Eric and Brian are in the process of creating a plan to go back and help the people of New Orleans, Alabama, and Mississippi before and after this second hurricane. The victims can expect Eric and Brian as they have joined to help raise awareness and get to the people immediately and “hands-on”.

More to come….

Gely D.
Secretary/Director, Can-do.org

Can-do is currently in the process of putting together a proposal outlining the creation of Temporary Turn-key Communities which we feel are necessary for various communities that have been affected by the Hurricane Katrina. These communities will provide all the necessary civil services for day-to-day life as relief and reconstruction efforts progress into the future. Beyond civil services, these communities will host job fairs, seminars, workshops, trade training opportunities and other services to help individuals address their employment situations and look ahead toward sustaining their future.
