Devastation in WV is heartbreaking. We’re helping families dig through mud & debris, trying to save what little they can. So many have lost their homes, cars, and belongings. But friends, neighbors, and strangers are showing up to help. When things get tough, good people show up.

Huge shoutout to the @guard_west 🇺🇸 They're setting the standard for disaster response—using excavators, skid steers, and military dump trucks to help clear devastated communities. More impressive than the equipment are the people. They're all in helping West Virginians recover.

July has brought historic flash floods across the US. While overall tornado numbers are low, sudden storms are hitting local communities hard. From a year's worth of rain in Texas to record floods in WV, stay weather-aware as storms hit the East Coast! youtu.be/mhfaQnGd910?si…

It's easy to think the world is getting darker. But after the past few weeks in TX, WV, IN & PA, we've seen the opposite. We've met families who've lost so much, yet they're helping others, and inspiring hope. Good people are everywhere—you just have to know where to look

Back in the Texas Hill Country one year after the devastating floods. Today topped 100°, but the determination of Texans is even stronger. Neighbors helping neighbors, volunteers showing up, and communities rebuilding together. We're honored to stand with these families. 🇺🇸

We’re in the home stretch of our Pennsylvania cleanup efforts! Huge thanks to @CBEC_Cat and Ledwell & Son Enterprises for providing the equipment that makes this work possible. Reaching small communities takes the right tools, and we couldn’t do it without your support.

As we wrap up a tough week of cleanup from the July 4th storm, another wave hit Lancaster County. Grateful everyone is safe! To every neighbor, volunteer, and helping hand who showed up this week—thank you for your kindness. There is more work ahead, but we are #LancasterStrong!

The July 4 storms in Lancaster County left behind heartbreaking damage. Helping clear roads, driveways, and homesites has been a reminder that community is strongest when people show up for one another. Grateful to everyone who volunteered their time and effort.

2026 has brought several powerful tornadoes, but thankfully many have missed heavily populated areas. While every family affected matters, we're grateful we haven't seen the widespread devastation of recent years. As always, we're ready to help where needed. 🌪️

We’re in Mississippi this week where an EF-3 tornado stayed on the ground for 70 miles. Damage stretches from one community to the next, and heavy rain is slowing cleanup efforts. But in the South, friends, family, and neighbors always show up for each other

Finally, a breather from major severe weather across much of the U.S.! 🌪️ The season isn’t over, but for the next few days, it looks like we’ve passed the most active systems of the week.

24 hours ago, so many of us watched live streams of tornadoes tear through Illinois and Indiana. The damage is heart-wrenching to see, and in times like this, one of the best ways we know how to respond is simply to get to work.

⚠️ If you’re in Illinois or Indiana, consider keeping this livestream on in the background tonight. Severe storms are moving through the region and tornadoes have already been reported. Live stream: youtube.com/watch?v=d6H9Ub…

It feels like an early start to the spring tornado season. Tornadoes usually peak in Illinois and Michigan from May through July, so seeing them touch down now—like the ones last week in southern Michigan or the setup today across Illinois—isn’t typical.

Quick heads up to our friends in MO, IL and IN. Tuesday night could bring tornadoes. Take a few min to make sure you have a plan in case warnings are issued and that your weather alerts are turned on. Stay safe and weather aware, friends. youtube.com/watch?v=C5zm06…

We’re in Michigan helping after 4 tornadoes hit several small communities. An EF-3 tornado here is rare, the damage has taken many by surprise. There were many injuries & sadly some lives lost. Grateful to see volunteers coming from near and far to help these communities recover
