BECAUSE OF YOUR FAITHFUL SUPPORT GOD'S PIT CREW HAS RESPONDED TO THE NEEDS OF PEOPLE SINCE 1999
We are so thankful that for nearly 12 years the faithful supporters of God's Pit Crew have generously given so that we could respond to a total of:
44 major disasters in 22 different states and 3 countries (Jamaica, Indonesia and Haiti)
We have delivered and helped to distribute over 50 million pounds of supplies in disaster areas
Our volunteers have cut thousands of trees off of peoples homes, gutted out houses, patched roofs, totally rebuilt homes and churches and prayed with people and gave them hope in their time of need.
We have helped our own community by giving millions of pounds of food and supplies to a network of over 171 local agencies who then give the product to individuals in the community. We helped the elderly with home repairs and helped to rebuild and restore numerous homes and churches after floods and disasters have completely destroyed them.
We stand ready for a Disaster with 12 years of experience in Disaster Relief with the tools necessary to get the job done and a volunteer list of more than three hundred people. If it's the Gulf Coast or Danville, we are here to help!

In recent years, our world has seen more natural disasters than ever before. The need for the services that we provide are steadily increasing both in natural disasters around our country and locally as more and more people are losing their jobs. We are working hard to meet the ever-growing needs of so many people. None of this is possible without people like you that give of their time, talents and treasures. We thank you for your support and together we can make a difference!
