As part of an initiative called the Day of Service volunteers fanned throughout New Orleans to engage in painting, cleaning and pressure washing.
At one location, employees from Entergy New Orleans, the city’s lone Fortune 500 Corporation, spent the day giving rooms at McDonough #28 Elementary a few fresh coats of paint.
Amy Davis, a customer service manager for Entergy said she sent out an in-house communication asking for volunteers and a number of employees responded.
“Every one here is here on a volunteer basis, and because they want to give back,” Davis said.
