Overview

Be The Hope. Ground Force Disaster Response is an innovative data-driven 501c3 non-profit. Our five Swift Intervention programs work in unison to protect and stabilize elderly and disabled victims of natural disaster. Hurricanes, tornados, wildfires and floods wreak havoc across entire communities and ecosystems disproportionately leaving the working poor, elderly and disabled in serious crisis. VISION STATEMENT Our vision is to be a data-driven action oriented 501c3 non-profit that protects and stabilizes the working poor, elderly and disabled who live in communities impacted by natural disaster. MISSION STATEMENT Ground Force Disaster Response trains professional citizens with vital skills to protect and stabilize working poor, elderly and disabled victims of natural disaster by embedding them into their community for extended periods of time. Our highly trained core team manages an influx of large numbers of professional volunteers with vital skills to provide a full range of physical and emotional care. From the ground, we use a data driven approach to establish a safe location, called SAFE Camp, in order to provide fast supply distribution and serve as a base of community care operations. We assess needs, then we quickly scale our efforts by utilizing social technologies to connect with and train professional citizens with untapped potential to join us in long-term sustainable rotating shifts to creatively assist the most vulnerable populations. Our teams consist of citizens with vital skills and untapped potential who have backgrounds in media and journalism, social media influence, technology and systems, home repair, tree and debris removal, medical and mental health, incident command, first responders, nonprofit partners, Emergency Management and FEMA training. We work with local community partners to build a coordinated program for full lifecycle case management for vulnerable populations to protect and stabilize vulnerable populations.
