Your support trains communities, equips responders, and protects lives.

Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC), CERT programs, youth education, technology tools, and
the mobile classroom & command trailer that brings training into remote communities.

DRS is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Eligible donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. A receipt can be provided
for your records.

during, and after disasters.
