🌟 Join us in Creating Change! 🌟 Friends of CC DART and CC DART have merged to become Northeast Tennessee Disaster Animal Response Team (NET DART). NET DART is now the name of our 501c3 organization. At Northeast Tennessee Disaster Animal Response Team (NET DART), legacy Friends of CC DART, we know that change starts with people like you. Every act of kindness, every dollar, and every moment of your time brings us closer to achieving our mission. Together, we can create a brighter, more compassionate world for all. NET DART is an all-volunteer team. We work closely with our community and local, state, and federal agencies in Northeast TN to shelter and care for animals in the event of a natural disaster or man-made emergency. With your donations, NET DART will have the necessary supplies, equipment, storage, and volunteer training needed to fulfill their mission. When a natural disaster or man-made emergency happens, NET DART will work with the requesting county to decide the best way to help the affected animals. This may include setting up an emergency animal shelter as close as possible to the people evacuation shelters. This way people do not have to leave their furrbabies behind. NET DART volunteers will help owners shelter, take care, feed, water, walk, and clean up after their pets. If the owners cannot do this, NET DART volunteers will do this for them. Decontamination is provided if needed and an emergency veterinarian is on call as needed to treat any event related injuries or illnesses. NET DART volunteers stay at the shelter 24 hours, on an 8-hour rotating schedule to ensure safety and care. The county may request the NET DART do something different to help the affected animals. During Hurricane Helene, as Legacy CC DART, we set up different distribution sites in Washington County TN to inventory and distribute the many animal supplies and food that were donated. Our volunteers went above and beyond helping many survivors and their animals by bringing food and supplies to them if they could not make it to the distribution sites. Overall, we distributed 106,000 pounds of dry food, over 700 cases of wet food, 550 dog beds, and over 500 different supplies such as blankets, collars, treats, and leashes. We also distributed 9,720 bottles of bleach.

Dear Net DART / Legacy Friends of CC DART Member, As we grow as an organization, Friends of CC DART has merged with CC DART to become one 501c3 organization! Our new name is Northeast Tennessee Disaster Animal Response Team (NET DART). We are still a part of the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) as a strike team. Members now have a choice to be a MRC volunteer as well as a NET DART volunteer and be covered by State of Tn Workers Compensation during training and deployment. Along with being a NET DART member and part of the MRC, volunteers have the opportunities (do not have to do) to pursue additional training and other volunteer activities. If a volunteer would only like to be a NET DART member, they can be, with required training and certification. They will have to cover themselves during training and deployment with personal insurance. Both are acceptable ways to be NET DART Volunteers! Thank you for your membership payment. Your membership dues and any donations will be used to support NET DART in being prepared to deploy for any disasters or emergencies that affect animals. Thank you for being NET DART members and growing with us!!
