MISSION

Sirens Project is dedicated to the organization and deployment of specialized disaster response teams to areas that have been impacted by severe weather and other natural disasters.

Our focus is providing immediate route clearance as well as technical tree and debris removal. By communicating with local law enforcement, churches, and non profit organizations, we aim to identify the area of greatest need within the impacted community, and provide professional level tree care at no cost.

PRIMARY AREA OF OPERATION - FEMA REGION 4 (SOUTHEAST)

VISION

To love and serve people after disasters through professional tree care.

It is our aspiration to help set the standard in tree care solutions for underserved and afflicted communities following natural disasters. By utilizing highly trained volunteer teams, arboriculture industry best practices, and cutting edge tree removal technology, we aim to provide swift, effective, and compassionate recovery efforts in response to natural disasters – while promoting the safety and needs of the community. 

Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act. – Proverbs 3:27

At least there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its new shoots will not fail. - Job 14:7

HISTORY

Sirens Project was born from a combination of passion for severe weather and helping others.

The tornado event of May 31, 2013 west of a small town called El Reno, Oklahoma sparked what would eventually become the efforts of Sirens Project. The largest tornado, at 2.6 miles wide, forever changed the storm chasing community and the trajectory of what Sirens Project has become. 

Sirens Project started as a grass roots effort using UAVs as a platform for severe weather research. Using cutting edge unmanned aerial vehicles, we set out to develop a safe and effective way to research supercell thunderstorms. We designed and manufactured UAVs in our basement shop in the suburbs of Atlanta, GA. We refined our designs again and again during field operations in Tornado Alley, USA. 

Our objective was to help shed a positive light on the upcoming UAV industry, as well as gather difficult to obtain in situ data within severe weather in hopes of improving forecasts and developing a more effective disaster response plan. After witnessing many devastated communities left behind as a result of severe weather, the focus of Sirens Project began to shift from research to relief. The resilient communities, and the people that make them, have inspired us to play a small part in their recovery.

What was once an exploratory effort using unmanned aerial vehicles to help unlock the mystery of tornadic supercells, has now become an official 501(c)(3) non profit dedicated to assisting communities impacted by natural disasters. Our main capabilities include technical tree and debris removal, sUAS mapping, and critical route clearance. Through love, and the utilization of industry standard best practices, trained professionals, skilled volunteers, and heavy equipment, Sirens Project aims to provide hurting families with professional tree care solutions following disasters.
