Promoting Life Safety Training

Since 2022, TRI has partnered with The Resilient Foundation to expand access to life safety, emergency preparedness, and resiliency education in underserved communities in India. What began as support for preparedness training has grown into a multi-year partnership focused on helping children, families, and communities build the knowledge and skills to better prepare for emergencies.

In 2026, the partnership expanded again, supporting preparedness education across 58 tribal schools and additional community resilience initiatives in Palghar.

About The Resilient Foundation
Based in India, The Resilient Foundation works with rural and marginalized communities to strengthen preparedness, first-response capabilities, and community resilience. Its programs provide practical, locally relevant education designed to reduce risk and help communities become better prepared to respond when emergencies occur.

TRI Highlights
TRI has funded preparedness and life safety training for elementary schools in rural India, including schools serving tribal communities in the Palghar region. In 2023, TRI Founder Andrea Davis traveled to India to see the programs firsthand and funded professional videography to help the Foundation share its work and strengthen future fundraising efforts.

Supporting Children & Families After Disaster

TRI has supported Project through pro-bono emergency planning services, including the development of its Emergency Operations Plan and Childcare Annex, and by helping raise awareness of its work within the emergency management community. TRI's former COO and current Board Advisor, Lorraine Schneider, has also served as the Project's Board Chair since 2021, providing sustained leadership and support as the organization has grown its mission and reach.

About Project:Camp
Project:Camp knows that the days immediately following an evacuation or a disaster are highly uncertain, stressful, and anxious days. They help parents find normalcy for their family by providing day camps for their kids that are fun, immersive, and safe. While kids have a blast at camp, parents have the time and space to get back on their feet.

Testimony
”Project:Camp would not be where it is today, do the work that it does, without the consistent, endless, knowledgeable support TRI has provided our organization.”
