Cause | Renew Orleans



When Ropeadope launched Renew Orleans two ( yes, TWO ) years ago they never thought they'd still be needed, but the sad truth is that our brothers and sisters in NOLA need us more than ever. So, they're giving the Renew Orleans line a makeover and relaunching to help them out. The Renew Orleans clothing line has donated over $ 80,000.00 to New Orleans musicians so far. This time, we will broaden our support to groups that are working in a few different areas of support - Music, Housing, Legal assistance, and environment. They've hooked up with the groups below for the launch, and we're counting on you to help us kick start this effort by showing your support and spreading the word. They've got some interesting sites set up at Ropeadope and Imeem - please join and invite your friends. The best part is that you can add your comments, pictures, music, photos, and video to the sites to share all things New Orleans with the world. So, before you spend your holiday budget, take some time to reach out to those in need.
