The SPEAR Project is a 100% veteran operated 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Created in December 2018 in response to Hurricane Michael, our mission is to provide direct search and rescue services to victims of hurricanes. SPEAR utilizes veterans and first responders and provides a unique asset to disaster response services by arriving before landfall, sheltering in the track of the eye, and providing rescue services to those most in peril immediately after the storm passes.
The SPEAR Project is growing quickly and is developing multiple programs and initiatives in order to best accomplish our mission. With this growth comes the need for good, reliable people to help.
