STIHL Partners With Team Rubicon to Aid in Disaster Recovery

With the goal of supporting natural disaster recovery efforts, manufacturer of battery-driven and motorized power garden tools STIHL Inc. recently partnered with Team Rubicon, a veteran-led disaster relief organization. As part of the partnership, STIHL donated $65,000 worth of battery-powered chainsaws and equipment to Team Rubicon’s Wildland Crew to help clear debris after disasters, plus an additional $10,000 to the group’s Ready Reserve Fund, which helps quickly deploy disaster response teams. The fund also ensures aid reaches smaller communities that often go unnoticed.

“STIHL has always built tools for those who put purpose before praise – people who don’t just work the land, but fight to protect it,” said Lindsy Hooper, Director of Public Relations and Business Events for STIHL Inc. “In Team Rubicon and their force of 200,000+ Greyshirt volunteers, we see that same dedication to mission, grit, and community. By providing dependable, battery-powered tools and supporting the Ready Reserve Fund, we’re ensuring their crews can hit the ground running to help communities the moment disaster strikes.”
