Powering Disaster Relief: Bobcat and The Salvation Army Unite for Community Resilience

When hurricanes tore through the Southeast in 2024, leaving neighborhoods in ruins and families displaced, The Salvation Army was on the front lines delivering meals, distributing clean-up kits and providing emotional care to thousands. Limited access to essential resources can slow relief efforts, but donated equipment from Doosan Bobcat have improved warehouse operations, provided light towers for nighttime service, and supplied generators to keep critical processes running when electricity is down, helping teams respond more efficiently and effectively.  

In the chaos after a storm, sourcing forklifts, portable generators or light towers can cost valuable hours. That’s why Bobcat stepped in with the machines that keep recovery moving.   

Bobcat Powers Life-Saving Preparedness

With Bobcat’s equipment donation, The Salvation Army can now deploy vital tools directly from its Emergency Disaster Services warehouses. The impact is immediate: forklifts unloading pallets of food and water, generators powering mobile kitchens, and light towers illuminating relief sites long into the night.
