This year, due to the escalation of drug-related violence on or near the border, numbers are down by more than half. Reports of swine flu are also deterring volunteers from traveling, but there is a silver lining to this bad news. Volunteers are now looking for projects closer to home including helping rebuild Houston and Galveston after Hurricane Ike. Comments:No comments have been submitted yet.
