This August will mark 20 years since Hurricane Katrina, an event that forever changed New Orleans. Whether you left Louisiana or stayed after Katrina, we want to hear your story. We’re asking listeners from near and far to share love letters to the city.
What do you love about New Orleans? What did you leave behind—and what did you carry with you? Tell us what the city means to you, then and now.
You can submit your love letter in two ways:
- Call the Gulf States Newsroom at 504-517-4926 and leave a voicemail reading your letter
- Or submit a written version using the form below
Let us know your name, age, where you’re from, and any other details you'd like to share.
If you respond, we may use your story on the air or online.
