“Team rubicon, inc. (team rubicon) is a non-profit international disaster response and humanitarian organization founded in 2010. Team rubicon's primary mission is providing disaster relief and recovery to those affected by natural disasters, across the united states and around the world. By pairing the skills and experiences of military veterans with first responders and technology solutions, team rubicon aims to provide the greatest service and impact possible. Through continued service via team rubicon, many veterans rediscover a sense of a purpose, community, and identity - three things many veterans lose after their military service ends. Team rubicon offers an avenue for veterans to continue serving as they transition from military to civilian life. They can also volunteer for leadership positions and other skills development opportunities which can be applicable outside of team rubicon. Expenses $19,223,951 including grants of $55,959 revenue $0”

“In the aftermath of a disaster team rubicon provides recovery services free of charge to affected homeowners, families, and communities. Services range from - but are not limited to - debris removal, muck-outs, chainsaw operations, heavy equipment work, demolition, expedient home repair, home rebuilds, incident management and coordination, damage assessments, route clearance, and disaster mapping. Additionally, team rubicon is verified by the world health organization (who) has an emergency medical team (emt) type-1 mobile capable unit. In 2019, team rubicon grew to 107,000 registered volunteers (70% military veterans) who have executed over 423 disasters operations, including large-scale events such as the 2010 haiti earthquake, superstorm sandy (2012), hurricane harvey (2017), hurricane florence and michael (2018), hurricane dorian (2019), and others. The cost to communities after large-scale disasters can be overwhelming for affected families, especially those without flood insurance. Team rubicon continues its long-term rebuild operations in places such as houston, tx, collier county, fl and puerto rico. Expenses $13,839,975 including grants of $217,000 revenue $0”

“Beyond disaster response and recovery, team rubicon invests in their volunteers and communities with disaster training education and relevant courses. Recruitment efforts for the organization focus on metropolitan centers across the united states, primarily in cities with a population larger than 100,000. With teams located across the us, team rubicon is able to quickly provide relief regardless of location or scale of a disaster. This focus on city-level recruitment has the added benefit of increasing the resiliency of local communities, creating a framework for team rubicon members, their families, and neighbors to prepare and respond to disasters together. The ability to continue to serve alongside like-minded individuals has substantial impact on team rubicon's veteran and civilian members alike, with 91% of members reporting a greater sense of purpose due to volunteering and a net promoter score of 79.8 team rubicon's commitments to financial and operational transparency have earned them high marks from charity watch groups, including a platinum rating from guidestar and a four-star rating from charity navigator. In coordination with several data and visualization partners, team rubicon also hosts the open initiative, an online data transparency dashboard available to the general public that provides real-time insight into key operational metrics and the overall health of the organization.
