The First Response Team of America rushed to help after the April tornado disaster in the Southeast. The aftermath of 200 tornadoes across 14 states left many lives in ruin. The First Response Team vigilantly surveys weather reports so they know where catastrophe has the potential to strike.
Founder Tad Agoglia recently told CNN what his team brings to rescue and relief efforts:
"We have huge lighting systems and rubble cameras for search and rescue. We've got cranes and trucks to remove the debris from the road. We've got the (generators) to power up emergency rooms, nursing homes, shelters. We've got just about every type of cutting tool known to mankind -- plasmas cutters, concrete saws, metal saws, wood saws -- anything that you need to get through an area to get to the people that need help."
One hundred percent of donations go toward the first response efforts.
