Where the folks are friendly! Keep track of what our volunteers are doing this week
We seem to have a stable wireless connection here in Biloxi, and we're taking pictures and writing posts on the CARESBlog. Read first-hand accounts hot off the press! There are plans for a new photos page, but for now, you can see the latest images on our Flickr account.

Livingston CARES would like to invite you to attend an interest meeting on Wednesday, October 17 at 6:30pm in College Union room 322/23. The meeting should last around an hour and you will be able to find out about our upcoming work trips and about the student group we are organizing to support Livingston CARES, called StudentsCARE. Paperwork will be available at the meeting for those who wish to sign up and reserve a spot on one of the trips.
StudentsCARE is a new group that we are forming this year whose purpose is to focus student efforts on campus and in the community on behalf of Livingston CARES. However, we welcome and encourage involvement with faculty and staff and members of the community. We will discuss and organize fundraisers and advertise for Livingston CARES.
