The Sun Herald | 03/28/2006 | Volunteers find small effort is big difference:
"The team repairing the home is part of a 405-volunteer contingent with Kent State United for Biloxi. The Kent, Ohio, group will be working in Biloxi and Pass Christian through Thursday. The group was also patching up the Vietnamese Martyrs Church on Oak Street on Monday. They will be restoring homes throughout their visit as well as helping out with a childcare program in East Biloxi and rebuilding the gazebo in the Pass Christian park near their camp.
Volunteer Bob Christy said Kent State United expects to continue their presence on the Coast for three or four years. Already making a huge impact for Duong's family and many others, Christy is looking ahead to the next excursion.
'This first trip is just a discovery year,"
