Donate to the Bucks Mont Katrina Relief Project
Who We Are
The Bucks-Mont Katrina Project is a partnership with purpose. Co-founders Bob Byers, Bill Eastburn and Mike Scobey formed this unique coalition in September 2005. Partnering with the Bucks-Mont community, The Salvation Army and the MS Gulf Coast citizens allows the team to optimize its impact. Working together, we've completed multiple and meaningful projects to help our Southern neighbors. Please enjoy visiting each web page. What's here is really a tale of what YOU and others, have made and are making possible. Thank you for caring!
