Team Rescue will restore order and rebuild the victims of Hurricane Katrina. These collaborated efforts are designed in three phases to assist those in need.
Phase I- Getting People Out!
Master P and "Team Rescue" will travel to Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi to meet with government and local officials to coordinate additional rescue efforts for those citizens still stranded in Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. It is Team Rescue's mission to not leave one person left behind, and help restore order in the lives of the victims.
Phase II-Team Rescue One Family at a Time!
There are thousands of families displaced as a result of this tragedy, but Team Rescue is commited to help rebuild and restore families. During phase two, our efforts will be focused on putting order back into the lives of families. We will begin our focus on those who truly want to be helped and have the potential of being productive citizens in their new environment. We realize there are numerous projects being developed to assist, and we cannot do this alone, therefore our approach will be to start with rebuilding families, one family at a time!
