Four years after Hurricane Katrina, George Washington Carver High School's football team is, like many in New Orleans, still without a home field. Now, with the help of students, community members, and a growing list of companies, the school's ambitious young athletic director, Brian Bordainick, has raised more than $1 million toward a new multipurpose stadium and field. If they hit their target of $1.85 million, the new field would underscore the restorative power of community in the face of adversity-and you can bet that every seat in the house will be filled every game night.ADD A BRICK Donate $100 to the 9th Ward Field of Dreams to get your name on a brick in the new stadium.
