In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, many Dow and UCC employees are offering their hands and their hearts towards many relief efforts throughout the community - volunteering their personal time in shelters, sharing their home with displaced families, and taking part in donation drives to help evacuees. Dow has been part of this community for many years and we are committed to help Louisiana recover.
