Keep the story alive!  Share your stories of the Gulf Region's ongoing urgent needs.

Five years ago this month Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast, followed by Rita and Gustav and now this year the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, exacerbating communities just beginning to rebuild. 

We want to hear your stories about how you, your family and the communities you live in are being affected and what solutions, community building and hopes are shaping this region's livelihood and creating history.  Our stories help keep the news stay on the front page!

Help us continue to build a library of video clips, photos, and personal testimonies about your experiences of the Gulf coast region before or since the sinking of the BP Deepwater Horizon on April 20, 2010.  How were you and your community engaging in Post Katrina recovery?  How is your home and neighborhood affected now? Do you feel your health is threatened?  Have you photographed or videotaped endangered or dead wildlife? 

Footage has already been picked up by ABC, CNN, Huffington Post, Mother Nature Network,TV Guide, AOL, Democracy Now and many others.  Tell Your Story!  Make the News and help foster the recovery of the Gulf Coast!
