Team Rubicon

We are excited to announce that our fearless leader and CEO, Art delaCruz, will be speaking at the Disasters Expo USA — the premier disaster-relief convention — in Los Angeles on September 6th. As part of the two-day event, Art will be leading "Turn the Tide: Team Rubicon's Lessons from Hurricane Response". Register today to learn best practices for hurricane disaster relief in the age of climate change, and how Team Rubicon's unique model of service, leadership and community maximizes impact in communities that need it most. #event #speaker #speakerseries #lectureseries #disasterrelief #nonprofit https://lnkd.in/gfyHXJRF

From one end of the country to the other, our Greyshirts are answering disaster's call. After Mendenhall Glacier’s Suicide Basin released flood waters a foot above last year's catastrophic levels, a team of 13 Greyshirts quickly deployed to the area to help the community recover. Near or far, when communities are in need, Team Rubicon is there. #GreyshirtAlways #disasterrelief

Seven years ago, #HurricaneHarvey made landfall in Texas and Lousiana, leaving a devastating wake of damage on its path. The storm may have tested our resilience, but Team Rubicon stepped up in a big way! Boots on the ground, our Greyshirts responded to one of the most devastating storms in history. From lives touched to homes rebuilt, we helped support a community coming together when it was needed most. #disasterrelief #nonprofit #emergencypreparedness #disaster #disasters #beprepared #preparedness

According to NationSwell, the percent of total U.S. volunteer hours completed by adults 65+ has increased from 18.5% in 2002 to 28.6% in 2021. This tells us that not only are seniors actively committed to serving their communities, but they're becoming more and more involved with each passing year. As an organization fueled by volunteerism, today we're celebrating #SeniorCitizenDay by spotlighting our very own 'Greyed' Shirts. The passion, determination and grit these Team Rubicon heroes bring to each deployment is truly invaluable to our mission! #senior #disasterrelief #nonprofit #volunteer #disaster #disasters

This #NationalNonprofitDay, we're proud to celebrate Team Rubicon’s recognition by The NonProfit Times as one of the best nonprofits to work for. At Team Rubicon, our mission is to use our skills and service to help communities in need on their road to recovery. It drives everything we do. Our Greyshirts make Team Rubicon a place where purpose meets impact, helping building stronger communities and empowering each other to make a difference. #TeamRubicon #GreyshirtAlways #SkillsXService

This past May, Greyshirts came together in Dallas at our National Operations Center (NOC) to hold HurrEx, Team Rubicon’s annual hurricane preparation exercise.    In advance of this year's Atlantic hurricane season, predicted to be the worst on record, Greyshirts trained for everything it takes to mobilize and serve communities in the face of a devastating hurricane.    From coast to coast, Team Rubicon has your six.    #TeamRubicon #hurricanepreparedness #hurricaneseason  https://lnkd.in/eNTMMxcd

Team Rubicon Look Back Pt. 9: Operation Backbone, August 2014 When a flash flood swept through the small mountainside town of Mt. Baldy, it left the community in a state of disarray unlike any other storm in the previous 45 years. In response, 37 Greyshirts worked for an entire week to complete 16 different work orders, assisting firefighters in creating a secondary water line, and clearing debris from roads and properties.

It has officially been 1 year since the #Maui #wildfires - burning 17,000 acres of land in its path. With help from our partners at PXG (PARSONS XTREME GOLF), our Greyshirts responded, utilizing local volunteers to coordinate logistics, donations, crowd management and traffic control. One year later, recovery is still in progress. Local Greyshirts continue to support recovery, whether through replanting local vegetation, or by conducting wildfire mitigation to help the community persevere through whatever comes next. Maui, through disaster and recovery, we've got your six. #MauiWildfires #MauiFires #TeamRubicon #disasterrelief #nonprofit #emergencypreparedness #emergency #emergencyrelief #preparedness
