The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Deans, Directors, and Department Chairs:
In two weeks the Carolina Center for Public Service will submit a report to Governor Hunt and the NC General Assembly on UNC-CH's Hurricane Floyd recovery efforts. Please submit one paragraph on your unit's activities to be included in this report.

The paragraph should include:

• a description of your most important recovery work - past and present
• an estimate of how many UNC students, faculty, and staff (total) have participated the work
• the counties or geographical areas affected by your work
•  any agencies with whom you have partnered
• one person to contact for more information - with phone number and email address
• a web address, if you have information about your recovery work on the web

The Carolina Center for Public Service supports hurricane recovery efforts by all parts of the University. We are in contact with numerous local and state officials and are available to help you plan recovery efforts that take advantage of your unit's expertise. We also plan trips for groups to rebuild some of the 56,000 damaged homes. If your unit would like to volunteer, we will provide equipment, transportation, and instruction on any day that you choose.

Finally, grant money is available to support your involvement in the recovery. To apply for a grant, please email a description of your project with a budget to cps@unc.edu.

Thank you for your many contributions to the people of North Carolina.

Sincerely,

Sandy Alexander
Coordinator, Hurricane Floyd Recovery Project
