GOVERNOR BARBOUR AND HABITAT TO COMMEMORATE KATRINA
WHAT: Habitat for Humanity of the MS Gulf Coast, along with Governor Haley Barbour and First Lady Marsha Barbour will be celebrating the progress made along the MS Gulf Coast since Hurricane Katrina made landfall in 2005. The event will highlight the completion of HFHMGC’s first large-scale development, The Trace, a twenty-eight house subdivision in Long Beach, MS.
WHEN & WHERE: Saturday, August 29, 2009
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony from 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Open House from 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.

The Trace subdivision– corner of Saratoga Dr. and Daugherty Rd.
Long Beach, MS

WHY: When Hurricane Katrina ripped through south MS in August, 2005, many of the decent, affordable housing options were destroyed or severely damaged. The housing need along the Coast became an immediate issue.
Since 2007, HFHMGC has more than 300 homes completed and several more currently under construction. HFHMGC is working diligently to alleviate the demand for affordable housing.
