There are 24 CDF/Butte County Fire Department employees and their family members who are volunteering their time and talent to rebuild a region devastated by Hurricane Katrina in Mississippi. The group has been seeking donations to help cover costs of materials and tools.

'The volunteers are using their vacation or leave time,' explained Mary Ann Aldrich, a fire prevention specialist for CDF/Butte County Fire. She is coordinating the group and traveling to Mississippi with her husband, who is a carpenter with experience building houses."
