Rapid Response Services Cleanup
When a tornado, hurricane, flood, or wildfire strikes an area in the United States, one of our 22 nationwide Rapid Response teams is on standby to investigate damages within 24 hours. If cleanup help is needed, they coordinate volunteers to help within 48 hours. Cleanup projects include cutting up trees, cleaning up debris, tearing out soggy insulation, and putting tarps on damaged roofs.
The team spent parts of several days cleaning our house and drying it. It was a big blessing to our family and saved us thousands of dollars since we had no flood insurance. Thank you for being agents of God’s love
