Disasters are unpredictable. Most disasters strike with little to no warning, and although some storms like hurricanes can be spotted ahead of landfall, there’s no telling the damage they might cause. Our team’s ability to mobilize quickly and effectively after disaster strikes is what makes the Ready Reserve Fund so impactful. It allows us to launch operations with speed and efficiency, knowing we do not have to wait on funding to respond to a vulnerable community whether before, during, or after a disaster or crisis strikes.
Disasters are devastating for individuals or families regardless of the size and scope. To make matters worse, not every disaster is publicized or covered by the news, which means communities impacted by low-attention events receive far less support. Team Rubicon serves in the wake of storms, big or small, whether they impact a few homes or an entire region. Team Rubicon’s Ready Reserve Fund is vital for communities of every size—it serves as a resource always at the ready for Team Rubicon to launch much-needed responses anywhere on the map. When you give to Team Rubicon’s Ready Reserve Fund, you support a community’s recovery from low-attention disasters. You support small communities hit by big problems. You support families and individuals going through one of the toughest periods of their lives.
With a volunteer force of over 160,000, a community’s resilience grows exponentially as the Ready Reserve Fund fuels Greyshirt volunteer training and education, enabling us to work alongside communities as they recover.
