Goodmorning Leslie,
Thanks for your interest. Our primary focus is for Hancock County.
We have assembled 67 homes to date and many more on the waiting list.
Your assistance in the volunteer department is extremely helpful.
Thanks. Our shelter location is presently at 1201 Hwy 90, Bay St.
Louis, MS 39520. We had the capacity to sleep 120, but we have scaled
down due to the flow of volunteers. We can probably house 50-75 and
have other locations to increase this number if necessary. We charge
$10/day to offset expenses. We have a complete kitchen in which teams
can prepare their own meals. We have a full time staff of 8 workers
and mixed in with long term staff workers a total of 4. Based on
sizes of group in the past, we feel 40 is the maximum size per week
for us. Much larger and the logistics are extremely stressful.
Additional volunteers are normally farmed out to other agencies.
God Bless,
Gene

Walls of Hope is looking for skilled and unskilled volunteers
to help in building and reparing homes in Waveland, Bay St
Louis and other areas of Hancock County which was one of the
hardest hit by Hurricane Katrina. This is a perfect opportunity
for your church group, school or civic group. Our facilities
include a full kitchen as well as beds for up to 60 volunteers
with other housing available for overflow.

Skills :
Skills not required but we are in desperate need of sheetrock
hangers and finishers, painters, carpenters and other skills.
We can use anyone that is willing to work and help rebuild homes
on the Gulf Coast. Supervision is provided by our trained staff.
Mission Statement:
Resources Group, Inc. is designed to minister the Gospel of Jesus
Christ for a hurting world. Our Primary purpose is leading people
to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and fortifying the faith
of all believers. Our intent is to use the rebuilding of homes
and churches as a vehicle to reach the lost and hurting.
Mission Strategy:
Once a family has entered our program we will purposefully share
our faith with them while on a job site, at an informative meeting
and scheduled assemblies we will use every opportunity to spread
the gospel. New conversions and recommitments will be forwarded
to local pastors for follow up. In the event that follow up
ministry is not available, it is our desire to place a team member
there within the community to insure growth of the new believers
using small group ministries on a weekly or biweekly basis.
Employment Strategy:
We desire to teach individuals in the surrounding communities
necessary skill sets to provide financial stability for their
families and create a sense of worth for their emotional well
being. Opportunities are numerous. I.E. (Carpentry, Plumbing,
Electrical, HVAC and Drywall to name a few) "Give a man a fish
he eats for a day, teach a man to fish and he eats for a life
time"
Production Strategy:
Expediency, effectiveness and efficiency are the key ingredients
that make our program run smoothly. We presently have the capability
of manufacturing 50 homes per month. Our installation of these
homes is much slower and is contingent on the use of volunteers.
WE are estimating the capability of 10 homes per month based on the
present scheduling of volunteers. In the next few months, if we can
not increase or maintain this rate of installation, we will hire
labors and/or sub contractors as needed. Unfortunately the will
raise the overall price of the homes.
Each home is manufactured in Fort Dodge, IA and is shipped to the
Gulf Coast. The wall sections for each house are packaged with
specific installation instructions, which make construction
knowledge helpful but not required to assist in the assembly of
these homes. Once the structure has been built and is dried in,
we endeavor to assist the families by consulting with them for
the completion of their home. We will provide such assistance
as gathering materials, services and coordinating volunteers to
help them through the rebuilding process.
Over the next few month we will be addressing the need to offer a
complete turnkey package for the homeowners. Presently we are
interviewing and pricing key trades people and suppliers to
complete different elements of the home. Our intent is to offer
these services and materials to the families at reduced prices
based solely on the volume of business we can generate.

Production Strategy:
Expediency, effectiveness and efficiency are the key ingredients
that make our program run smoothly. We presently have the capability
of manufacturing 50 homes per month. Our installation of these
homes is much slower and is contingent on the use of volunteers.
WE are estimating the capability of 10 homes per month based on the
present scheduling of volunteers. In the next few months, if we can
not increase or maintain this rate of installation, we will hire
labors and/or sub contractors as needed. Unfortunately the will
raise the overall price of the homes.
Each home is manufactured in Fort Dodge, IA and is shipped to the
Gulf Coast. The wall sections for each house are packaged with
specific installation instructions, which make construction
knowledge helpful but not required to assist in the assembly of
these homes. Once the structure has been built and is dried in,
we endeavor to assist the families by consulting with them for
the completion of their home. We will provide such assistance
as gathering materials, services and coordinating volunteers to
help them through the rebuilding process.
Over the next few month we will be addressing the need to offer a
complete turnkey package for the homeowners. Presently we are
interviewing and pricing key trades people and suppliers to
complete different elements of the home. Our intent is to offer
these services and materials to the families at reduced prices
based solely on the volume of business we can generate.
