Let me try to keep all of this information straight.

Habitat for Humanity of Greater Baton Rouge just received a check for about $391,000 from the Blank Family Foundation, owners of the Atlanta Falcons. This check amounted to a generous donation that was probably led by Warrick Dunn, of the Atlanta Falcons. Warrick has been a generous contributor to the Baton Rouge area, and this is no exception. I believe the check is intended to go to Katrina victims and most certainly this should allow at least six new homes to be built.

There are four (maybe it's six) "houses-in-a-box" headed down the Mississippi that have passed through Memphis. These are the homes for the blitz build that begins on November 27. We have had a shortage of drywall in this area and when this was explained to Habitat International, they were able to get Lowe's to donate enough material for four (maybe it's six) houses. The material was loaded on the barge in Memphis and we still expect to see it next Monday.

Finally, we received word that a Chicago-based firm that held their annual retreat here this past year (rather than have boring meetings, they all pitched in and helped remodel our Restore), wants to return and help build houses this time, again for Katrina victims. Note to any corporate types, the employees that attended the retreat thought the remodeling event was the best retreat they had ever had. Other note to corporate types, you can sponsor your very own house for the bargain basement price of $56,000.
