About Minuteman Disaster Response Foundation

Minuteman Disaster Response Foundation is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in McKinney, Texas, that organizes trained, self-sufficient volunteer teams to provide immediate, hands-on disaster relief after storms, floods, wildfires, and hurricanes. The organization operates chainsaw and heavy-equipment teams, muck-and-gut crews, and specialized Advanced Relief Teams (ART) to clear debris, open access, and begin home recovery work at no cost to affected homeowners and communities. Minuteman maintains an active deployment cadence (multiple states per year), public volunteer training, and a donor-facing fundraising and sponsorship program to support rapid responses and sustain operations.

Notable achievements

Sustained national deployments

In recent years the organization has regularly deployed volunteers across the U.S.; in 2024 it reported deploying over 262 volunteers to 17 disaster events and logging thousands of volunteer manhours to support recovery work.

Founded from Joplin response (2011) & tax-exempt status

Originating from volunteer relief work after the 2011 Joplin, MO tornado, the group incorporated and operates as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3), scaling from a regional volunteer effort to a national disaster-response nonprofit.

Specialized operational capabilities

Maintains trained chainsaw and heavy-equipment crews, muck-and-gut teams, and Advanced Relief Teams able to operate self-sufficiently in the immediate aftermath of disasters to clear hazards and prepare homes for recovery.
