ServeUp New Orleans 2025 is Happening! 

ServeUP was born after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans in August 2005. InterVarsity students responded by spending their Spring Breaks rebuilding homes around New Orleans for a decade. We took a few years serving other communities impacted by storms like Baton Rouge, Houston, Puerto Rico and Panama City but we’re back in New Orleans!

Is there still clean-up to do 20 years later, you ask?
​YES. New Orleans’ Ninth Ward, which was hit hardest in 2005, is still recovering (we’ll talk about some justice issues as to why once we’re there). Plus, the devastation from Hurricane Ida in 2021 was a hard set back. Plus, the natural environment is just now at a place where we can replant native species and restore local ecosystems, in addition to houses.
​
Join us this March as we serve local partners, families, and bayous to rebuild this vibrant community and bring hope to families in need.

Our Partner Organizations

We follow the leadership of local non-profits who have been doing recovery work before us and will continue once we leave. We’re honored to serve with these groups.
