Hey mister! Don't throw out doubloons -
Souvenirs of past Carnivals can benefit a
worthy cause. Eva Barkoff. The Times-Picayune.
New Orlans, La. November 6, 2005.

After Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, Kevin Donahoe developed the idea of collecting flooded and unflooded doubloons to benefit this project, as well as other projects. The following articles appeared in the Times-Picayune in 2005 and in the Times-Picayune in 2008 on the "Doubloons for Cancer" Project. An article also appeared in 2009 in Where Y'at Magazine on the 50th Anniversary of the Mardi Gras doubloon created by the Rex Organization. If you have any doubloons, please contact Kevin directly at: Kevindonahoe@aol.com
