Great Work! 4B Disaster Response Network
Volunteers Just Keep Helping Families
Our 4B Disaster Response
Network just keeps on when most
have abandoned the 600,000
Houston area residents bounded
by the Beltway the Beach
Brazoria County and to the Bay.
Through the donations of time and skill
we've been using our non-profit
network to coordinate more than 5,500
volunteers from partner churches,
faith-based and community
organizations, local businesses and
civic organizations.
The large skilled volunteer
base in partner churches, faith-
based and community
organizations enables 4B DRN
to rebuild at scale and at far
lower costs.
There still remains more
than 200 families on the
waiting list for 4B Disaster
Response Network
restorations.
The 4B DRN is also
actively preparing for the
next disaster.
"Disaster Readiness Coordinators"
have been identified in local
churches, businesses and civic
organizations who are leading the
way in helping the 4B Area be
prepared to face future challenges.
These DRC's are assessing
resources and are in a position
to mobilize in the wake of a
disaster in order to best serve
their 600,000 neighbors.
Our Current Disaster Response
Challenge Is Really Too BIG! Despite
the amazing impact of the 4B DRN
volunteers, Hurricane Harvey related
funds are coming to an end as
funders direct their resources to more
recent disasters.
Without additional donations our current
run-rate may require the organization to
transition out of rebuilding those 200
homes of Bay area residents and
strategically move into further long-term
disaster preparedness in the first
quarter of 2021.
About Our 4B Disaster Response Network
4B DRN is a non-profit 501(c3) formed by
over 30 faith-based organizations
immediately following Hurricane Harvey and
was tasked with rebuilding homes in
Southern Harris County and Galveston
County, and to prepare the area for future
disasters.
