In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and now Milton, we are organizing an auction with my personal collection from my time as a business owner of Macon Better Music and my father's connections. I had the privilege of meeting many talented musicians and actors during this period and later as a board member of The Allman Brothers Band Association.
One of my most memorable experiences was organizing a benefit event for Larry Howard of Grinderswitch, at the request of Charlie Daniels. I am collaborating with The Cajun Navy to conduct an online auction to support their efforts during Hurricane Helene and Milton. We will donate 10% of the proceeds from this auction to show our appreciation for their exceptional services and selflessness in assisting Americans during times of need. Thank you to The Cajun Navy for all that you do!

WE ARE A NEW GENERATION OF DISASTER SOLUTIONS
Ground Force’s five swift intervention programs.
- Safe Camp – A safe place in a disaster zone.
- Community Caretaking – In home visits to care for the most vulnerable community members with a countless creative range of services.
- Data-Driven Remote Team – Manages our deployment operations remotely.
- Visual Storytelling – Keeps the disaster narrative alive.
- Swift Intervention Training – We train groups or individual volunteers to be ready for the next deployment.
Each program is created to empower new levels of collaboration between citizen volunteers, corporations, government, emergency managers and local community partners.
These programs are crafted with the goal of fostering teamwork among multiple disaster response entities.
- American citizens and spontaneous volunteers are the backbone of our efforts. We are a pipeline that empowers citizens to take action and our programs allow them to work with us to safely deliver direct relief work based on their own capabilities.
- Corporate partners are matched where they best fit to provide in-kind services that are delivered right where and when they are needed.
- Emergency managers and other officials have visibility and can send work item requests that can be accomplished within the appropriate program.
- The press has controlled access to strong accurate stories that keep the narrative alive longer.
- Our varied and numerous nonprofit partners have a safe place to work side by side, preventing duplication and enabling collaboration in real time around common goals.
Together, these programs, when applied collaboratively into distressed areas, are designed to become a community’s safety-net, a badly needed imported network of support for socially isolated and vulnerable individuals. Our programs easily scale when called for and can deliver a massive amount of relief and can be scaled back when no longer needed. Scroll down to learn about each program in detail.
