About Us

Our Story: OSDT 

In the face of unexpected hardship, the Ocean State Disaster Team stands ready to help our Rhode Island neighbors. We understand that disasters can turn lives upside down in an instant, leaving families without even the most basic necessities. That's where we come in. Through the incredible generosity of donations and dedicated fundraising efforts, we provide immediate and tangible support to families striving to get back on their feet. From clothing and used furniture to toiletries and groceries, we aim to ease the burden and offer a pathway to recovery.


How We Make a Difference

When disaster strikes, displaced families and individuals often lose everything. The Ocean State Disaster Team steps in to provide essential items they may have lost, offering a sense of stability when their world feels chaotic. We don't just provide aid; we offer resources to help the displaced rebuild their lives and regain their independence.


Join Our Mission

Our work is only possible with the support of our community. We are always looking for volunteer help in a variety of crucial roles:

  • Front Lines: Be directly involved in gathering donations and distributing them to families in need.

  • Behind the Scenes: Contribute your skills to grant writing, crafting heartfelt thank you letters for donations, or writing compelling donation request letters.


How Can You Help?

Every contribution, big or small, makes a significant difference in the lives of those affected by disaster. If you're looking for a meaningful way to give back and help your community, we invite you to join the Ocean State Disaster Team. How can you help us continue our vital work?
