Ram Nation Volunteers Gathered to Aid Flood Stricken Residents of Rosenberg, Texas, Southwest of Houston

June 14, 2016 , Auburn Hills, Mich. -  More than 20 Ram Nation volunteers from Finnegan Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram dealership and the Ram Truck brand’s Southwest Business Center teamed with the First Response Team of America Saturday, June 11, in Rosenberg, Texas, (southwest of Houston) to deliver supplies and to help clean up homes damaged in the recent Memorial Day weekend floods.

Tad Agoglia, founder of the First Response Team of America, directed the effort and led the caravan of Ram trucks from the Finnegan dealership in Rosenberg, Texas, to the clean-up site.

The Ram brand established a partnership with the First Response Team of America in 2012 to help communities across the country respond to natural disasters. Since then, Ram – through the FCA Foundation – has donated more than $300,000 to First Response. As a result, Ram and the First Response Team of America have led similar collaborative operations in many areas, including Wimberley and San Marcos in central Texas, Tupelo, Miss., and Moore, Okla.

Ram Truck created Ram Nation in 2012. It is a grassroots organization of like-minded people willing and ready to help people in need, such as those in flood-damaged Texas. Ram Nation volunteers – ranging from Ram truck owners to brand and dealership employees – haul supplies, deliver equipment, clear debris, distribute food and water, and even make donations that help people in their communities and around the world.
