This group is about preparing for disaster. The three essentials needed for survival are: water, shelter, and food. The fourth element is affiliation with others who are like minded and can assist with your preparation and with your survival. The government may not be able to help you, but your friends and family can. So, lets band together and provide and receive help planning to reach our goals. We can all learn from each other by sharing ideas and building skills.

The focus of this group is to have fun and help others.  Typical volunteer meet-ups for this group include volunteering at soup kitchens, food banks, or marathons while typical social activities include going out to a movie, restaurant, or bar.  E-mail ideas you have for preferred events! :)
