The Cajun Army is a group of volunteers from across the U.S. who can mobilize at a moment’s notice to help those in need when natural disasters strike, such as Hurricanes Harvey and Irma that struck our country this year.
Its mission statement reads: “We are an all-volunteer organization whose main goal is to assist those who have been displaced by natural disasters.”
The group was founded by Chris King, Nick Loupe, and Josh Loupe and has since grown exponentially.
