Team Rubicon Recon: Chile

Team Rubicon is headed to Chile, to scout out areas along the coast where their help may be most needed. Prayers and donations always welcome.

They have a fan page on Facebook, and you can sign up for updates directly from them (on their website), if you are so inclined.

Team Rubicon Documentary

The trailer is here from their trip to Haiti:



This organization was established right after the earthquake in Haiti as a team of first responders who could get on the ground faster than larger aid organizations or even the military. Their mission in Haiti was such a success, they have decided to stick around.

Team Rubicon in Haiti

Team Rubicon needs more volunteers to go to Haiti ASAP. If you're interested, click here.

Who they need (very precisely): ER doctor types plus pediatric skills EMT's. Security element still necessary need former military with combat experience and trauma skills, a school teacher would be a good addition as we transition

One way or the other, make sure you check out their blog. I don't know any of these men personally, but I'm impressed by all brave Americans who jump in and get in done in time of need. These are those guys.

Mission to Haiti: Help if you Can

This effort led by former Marines and Soldiers is ad hoc, but it sounds like they're going to get a lot done on the ground, quickly, just as they likely did when they were in active service.
