What We Do

Rapid Response (RR), deploys to natural and man-made disasters -- locally, nationally and around our world. As a faith-based organization, we are committed to providing compassionate relief and humanitarian aid in the midst of crisis and disaster. We are committed to bringing hope to the hopeless by meeting the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs of the hurting. We respond to God's call to help the poor and disadvantaged, and our group seeks to be a voice for those who have none. Since the Fall of 2021, Rapid Response has also sent multiple teams to help disaster victims in Louisiana, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Hawaii and Ukraine; as well as to the historic flood areas in Nebraska and Iowa.
