Dear Friends,

Thanks to the efforts of many, the region served by the Greater New Orleans Foundation has begun a journey up from hurricane-inflicted disaster toward hope. to improve the of It is not an easy path, nor is it for the faint of heart. At times it feels like a quality yearlong sprint or a marathon that will last many years. But signs are everywhere that you and the great people of southeastern Louisiana are more than able. In for all citizens of our area, this report you will see signs in the hands of children, who are the best reason for life imagining—and creating—a livable, economically strong community. When Hurricane Katrina’s wind and floodwaters subsided, it became clear that generations of leaders and supporters of the Greater New Orleans Foundation had now and for future generations put the organization in a unique position. Now, it would be called upon to play both traditional and completely unexpected new roles in the recovery. Thanks to that history of support, to more than $25 million in new gifts and this is where we belong we are pledges from organizations and individuals, and to the way political, business and nonprofit leaders turned to the Foundation for leadership, the Greater New Orleans Foundation is poised to lead in the years ahead. home to stay in New Orleans We believe that creating a dynamic future for the region depends on three key areas of focus: a skilled workforce; safe, affordable neighborhoods; and great pub- lic schools. Since Katrina, the Foundation’s Board and staff have embraced the role of devoting their efforts to achieving and measuring success in those areas. In addition, your Foundation has committed itself to helping the region address CONTENTS challenges of race and equity that permeate each of those cornerstones of success.

But the story of August 29, 2005, was told best in simple signs written by people who experienced Katrina firsthand, and who now are rebuilding their communities.

Through Parkway Partners, people in neighborhood and civic groups are repairing trees, replanting grass and “re-greening” the city.

To ensure that all voices are heard, GNOF has helped foster voter participation in cities through organizations such as the Advancement Project and the National Coalition of Black Civic Participation. To help build a better public school sys- tem, the Foundation has supported New Orleans Outreach, Greater New Orleans Afterschool Partnership, New Schools for New Orleans and others.

The Rockefeller Foundation, the Bush the region served by GNOF: Clinton Katrina Fund, and the Greater New Orleans Founda- ∑ tion are among the major supporters of UNOP. More than 50 percent of the area’s population has returned. ∑ 60,000 businesses have reopened. ∑ 25,000 students have enrolled in public schools.

However, the extent of the damage is clear, and the journey will not be short or easy. Although roadside signs and tacked- up notes have been replaced again by modern communica- tion, the children of Greater New Orleans are not yet finished telling their story with handwritten signs. Inheritors-to-be of the communities most affected by Hurricane Katrina, they continue to use paper, pencils and markers to illustrate what has happened, and to tell us about their hopes:

“This is where I belong.” “We are home to stay.”

Thanks to you, the Greater New Orleans Foundation is here to stay, too. when we need inspiration, or help deciding which way to turn we’ll need only to look to the children along this road for signs of hope New Orleans Community Support Foundation The Rockefeller Foundation, the Bush Clinton Katrina Fund and the Greater New Orleans Foundation: Helping People Rebuild a City

Hurricane Katrina posed several probing questions for res- idents and leaders of New Orleans, according to Rockefeller Foundation Associate Director Carey Shea: “It’s gratifying to see how the plan is giving voice to citizen’s aspirations,” Shea said. Shea, who is working with GNOF at “Where will our children go to school?” the Foundation’s office in New Orleans, added that “it was a “What jobs and opportunities will be available to their challenge to bring together more than 70 registered neigh- parents — and to those children when they grow up?” borhood associations and dozens of other informal groups “Where will people live?” to work openly and collaboratively, but thanks to the de- “How can rebuilt neighborhoods foster a spirit and quality of termination of residents it’s working. There is tremendous life that work for everyone?” goodwill and creativity at work and Rockefeller is honored to be part of this historic process.” To help the people of New Orleans answer those and other questions, in June 2006 the New Orleans Community Support Foundation (NOCSF) was formed. NOCSF be- gan work immediately to create the Unified New Orleans Plan, a comprehensive citywide infrastructure plan for the city, in close consultation with area officials, civic leaders and residents.

Financing for the NOCSF has been provided by a $3.5 mil- lion grant from The Rockefeller Foundation along with a $1 million grant each from the Bush Clinton Katrina Fund and the Greater New Orleans Foundation.

As a direct result of that support, and expertise provided by Rockefeller, a neighborhood planning process was devel- oped and planning teams and residents are working now to redesign and rebuild the neighborhoods of New Orleans.
