About Common Ground Relief

Louisiana

Common Ground Relief was founded after Hurricane Katrina as a grassroots group providing aid and rebuilding support in New Orleans. Today, it is an environmental nonprofit dedicated to coastal restoration, wetlands reforestation and building community resilience. CGR works closely with local communities and runs a volunteer-driven program that plants about 5,000 trees and 16,000 marsh grass plugs each year to stabilize shorelines and restore natural ecosystems. Volunteers from around the world support CGR’s mission to promote sustainability and environmental justice throughout Louisiana.
