For years, Hertz has been an integral part of Team Rubicon’s ability to respond quickly to disasters, wherever they strike. This hurricane season has been no different. Over the past several weeks, we've launched numerous operations in response to Hurricanes Helene and Milton across the Southeast. Transportation is an essential part of both setting up and maintaining our operations. As a result of proactive in-kind vehicle donations from Hertz, we were able to get Greyshirts on-site quickly and safely in communities in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee. Hertz’s year-round collaboration and in-kind support through their nationwide network is invaluable and allows for us to provide support more quickly to communities in crisis during both grey and blue skies. #HurricaneSeason #NonProfit #Partnership

We were honored to welcome National Commander of the American Legion and Air Force Vet James A. LaCoursiere Jr. at our Forward Operating Base located at American Legion Post 103 in Punta Gorda, FL. After meeting our volunteers and command staff and seeing how our Greyshirts are serving survivors of #HurricaneHelene and #HurricaneMilton, LaCoursiere came away saying Team Rubicon is “Family taking care of a community...to restore lives." Thank you sir, for showing your support of our mission, and thank you to the members of American Legion Post 103 for letting us use your facilities for good! #HurricaneRelief #TeamRubicon #AmericanLegion #DisasterResponse #HurricaneHelene #HurricaneMilton

With the support of our Ford Motor Company vehicles, we're protecting at-risk communities nationwide. Greyshirts and Ford recently hit the ground in Green Mountain Falls, CO—7,800 feet up—to reduce extreme fire risk in the area through wildfire mitigation. Meanwhile, Greyshirts continue to serve areas impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Thank you, Ford, for backing our teams as they respond to disasters nationwide. #TeamRubicon #DisasterResponse #WildfireMitigation #PoweredByFord
Location: Green Mountain Falls, CO. Altitude: 7,800 ft. Mission: Wildfire mitigation. Fire risk level: Extremely high. Team Rubicon® Greyshirts and their fleet of Ford® vehicles complete wildfire mitigation efforts to help protect at-risk mountain communities from one of Mother Nature’s worst-case scenarios. Currently, Greyshirts are serving areas affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Ford is proud to support volunteers doing critical work in response to unprecedented disasters.

Did you know that 90% of natural disasters within the US involve #flooding? Consequently, floods inflict more economic damage and loss of life and property than any other natural hazard. This is why Team Rubicon's work is so critical. Just 1 inch of water can cause an average of $25,000 in damage. Team Rubicon steps in to mitigate this devastation. The average water damage insurance claim payout is $13,954, yet it costs TR only $1,200 to complete one muck and gut. Since 2022, TR has completed 1,116 muck and guts, saving homeowners and communities a staggering $14,233,464. This incredible #ReturnOnInvestment showcases the value and impact of Team Rubicon's efforts. We are not just restoring homes; we are rebuilding lives and communities. #TeamRubicon #DisasterRelief #Flooding #CommunitySupport Source (Natural Disasters | Homeland Security (dhs.gov))
#MissionMuckOut Observing the damage from Hurricanes #Helene and #Milton, I've been reflecting on community resilience and Team Rubicon's response efforts that are fueled by our donors. Our veterans and first responders are stepping up from FL to NC, but they need your support more than ever. So, we are launching #MissionMuckOut to rally our community during this crucial period. Mucking out means removing mud, muck, and wet debris from homes affected by floods or hurricanes, a vital step before reconstruction or repairs. #MissionMuckOut aims to highlight the tough work needed to aid thousands displaced by water damage. This no-cost service by Team Rubicon started shortly after Helene landfall and will continue for months. I urge our supporters and partners to inspire others to follow and donate. Contributions will empower our teams and help those affected. If you believe in Team Rubicon's mission, comment below, inspire others, and fuel our missions. Join us in creating a wave of generosity! I challenge each of you to tag and inspire at least two social impact leaders in your network to donate and spread the word. Together, we can amplify our efforts and make a significant difference. If you’d like to donate to or learn more about our response efforts, please email partnerships@teamrubiconusa.org. #TeamRubicon #HurricaneRelief #Helene #Milton #DisasterResponse #Philanthropy #CSR #SocialImpact #Marketing #Advertising Jeff Terry, Erin I., Wayne Peacock, Flynn Burch, Randy Termeer, Terry Dolan, Kristen Ensor, Heather Prill, Sean Vissar, Jake Wood, Joe Marchese, Leslie Jones

And Seven words that make our day: "I couldn’t have done it without you.” 🫶 #PascoCounty resident & #HurricaneHelene survivor Lorraine Hale shared her experience and gratitude after receiving help from #TeamRubicon. Her home was flooded with nearly six feet of water and mold started to develop quickly. Our Greyshirts worked tirelessly to remove damaged materials from Lorraine’s home, stopping the growth of mold and helping her on the path to recovery. Help fuel our mission and join us in supporting survivors like Lorraine: https://trusa.co/helene24 #HuricaneHelene #disasterresponse #hurricanerecovery #TeamRubicon
