Hurricane Relief Team (HRT)
SU HRT is a service team consisting of approximately 20 students, faculty and staff who travel to the Gulf Coast to assist with Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts. Trips take place during winter, spring and summer breaks. Service projects have included house gutting, de-molding and painting, tutoring, baseball field and playground construction, tree removal and brush crew work, mural painting and animal shelter support.
Hurricane Katrina was a life-changing disaster for millions; at Susquehanna, we are committed in helping the affected area through multiple weeklong service excursions during the year. Disaster Impacts in Society is the service-learning course that complements the HRT trips.
