Help us provide the gear they need

The Firefighter Rescue Network currently working to equip and train the Mobile Rescue Center (MRC) of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine in support of their rescue teams working at building collapses.
Russian military strikes have damaged or destroyed an estimated 38,000 residential buildings, 1,900 educational facilities (kindergartens, grade schools, and universities), 500 factories, and 500 hospitals, often leaving victims trapped in the rubble.
The Mobile Rescue Center is the Ukrainian team specially trained to rescue victims of building collapses and was certified in 2014 (and recertified in 2019) at the highest level as a Heavy Urban Search and

This dedication to service has been ongoing since the formation of the Mobile Rescue Center.
