May 2025 NWA Disaster Relief Mission: SDIA Clears 256 Trees, Helps 88 People, and Earns Citywide Praise
After a powerful deployment in May 2025, Sheep Dog Impact Assistance (SDIA) has once again demonstrated why we’re trusted boots on the ground when disaster strikes. This month’s NWA Disaster Relief Mission resulted in:
✅ 19 properties cleared
✅ 88 people directly helped
✅ 11 Veterans served
✅ 26 dedicated volunteers
✅ 256 storm-damaged trees cut and cleared
These numbers speak for themselves, but the local recognition we received speaks even louder.
