Our Mission

Technology Doesn't
Stop at the City Limits

When floods, wildfires, or storms hit rural Texas, small counties are on their own. No backup connectivity. No tech team. No way to coordinate rescue or reach family. Texas DisasterLink exists to change that.

📡
Emergency Connectivity Rapid Starlink deployment to disaster zones within 24 hours of activation — at no cost to counties.
🌐
Rural Broadband Access Permanent Starlink placements at rural fire stations in cellular dead zones, connected year-round.
🛠️
Disaster Tech Corps Ready-to-go kits with a quick-setup card and a hands-on walkthrough, so crews get online in minutes without IT staff.
What We Do

Two Programs.
One Mission.

Texas DisasterLink operates two complementary programs that share the same hardware, team, and county relationships.

🚨 TDL Response

Disaster Tech Corps

When disaster strikes, we get satellite connectivity to first responders within 24 hours — not days. Starlink Mini kits that set up in minutes, backed by our team, at no cost to the departments we serve.

  • Rapid Starlink deployment to disaster areas and mutual aid sites
  • Connectivity for first responders and command posts
  • Kits set up in minutes with a quick-setup card
  • Zero cost to fire departments and counties
  • Pre-signed MOUs so we can move on a phone call
📶 TDL Connect

Rural Broadband Loan

Between disasters, our Starlinks stay at rural fire stations in cellular dead zones, giving crews reliable connectivity for brush fires, medical calls, and daily operations.

  • Permanent Starlink placement at rural fire stations
  • TDL covers the hardware and Starlink service
  • Devices already in place when the next disaster hits
  • Builds year-round relationships with local departments
  • Simple MOU, no financial obligation for the department

Why We Exist

A Flood. A Phone Call.
Eleven Starlinks.

In mid-2025, a devastating flood hit Central Texas. First responders on the ground couldn't communicate — the flood had wiped out cell towers in a remote area with no backup connectivity. People were calling for anyone with a Starlink to help.

We sent ours by courier. Then we bought ten more. Texas DisasterLink was founded on the belief that no Texas county should face a disaster without a connectivity plan — and that a small, tech-focused nonprofit could fill the gap that big carriers and government agencies leave behind.

We're based in Dallas, deploying across Texas, and building the government partnerships that make our work sustainable. We're not waiting for the next disaster. We're preparing for it now.
