Animal Rescue New Orleans

Habitat for Humanity NOLA

Dedicated and committed to creating a business climate conducive to the economic development and growth of the Hispanic community, its mission has historically included the expansion of trade relations between the State of Louisiana and Latin America. T hen, Hurricane Katrina came ashore in New Orleans on August 29, 2005 changing all of that, and the rest, as they say, is history.

The socio-economic damage caused is without precedent. More than one million people were displaced and thousands of small businesses ceased to exist. More than 40% of Louisiana’s economic base was destroyed or disrupted.

Clearly, it was no longer business as usual for our chamber. Over 100,000 Hispanics have moved into the region since the storm and are predominantly engaged in rebuilding the area. HCCL immediately recognized the new challenges: a variety of work and social skills must be developed and nurtured; language training must be provided; business skills and guidance must be offered; mentoring, education, and leadership opportunities must be provided.
