We respond when disaster strikes

Our Mission

Disaster Preparedness & Relief Services is a holistic program designed to address the immediate and long-term needs of victims of natural disasters. Our trained team is dedicated to providing comprehensive short and long-term recovery plan development.

Long-Term Support

Uniquely positioned in the DFW area, our program stands out by offering both short-term assistance and long-term case management. This means survivors of disasters receive ongoing support, empowering them to rebuild their lives and homes through carefully crafted programming, valuable partnerships, and strategic referrals.

Support our Mission

For those who may not be able to volunteer directly but wish to contribute, your support is invaluable. While it’s challenging to respond until a disaster strikes, we believe in the power of proactive assistance. Your donation helps us grow our ability to be ready before the event of an emergency. Moreover, it enables us to be a safety net for families in our community every day, addressing challenges such as keeping their homes heated or cooled, paying rent, putting food on the table, covering medical emergencies, and navigating life’s unexpected events.

Your generosity extends beyond disaster relief—it becomes a lifeline for those facing daily emergencies. Consider making a donation today to empower us to create a stronger, more resilient community for everyone.
