Building Small Businesses Builds Communities

How We Started

Small Business Development and Resource Solutions (Small Business D.R.S.) was born from the shared experiences of Gulf Coast natives and business owners who intimately understand the challenges and struggles that follow in the wake of natural disasters. Having personally navigated the aftermath of storms, they recognized the critical need for comprehensive support to help businesses get back on their feet. With a firm belief that rebuilding small businesses means rebuilding the heart of a community, they founded Small Business D.R.S. Their journey began with a vision to provide guidance, resources and connections to local businesses striving to recover and plan post-disaster. This mission expanded to include supporting out-of-town contractors, ensuring that their efforts in rebuilding are efficient and effective. Small Business D.R.S. is a testament to the power of community and the determination to create a stronger, more resilient business landscape in the face of adversity.

Our Mission

The mission of Small Business Development and Resource Solutions (Small Business D.R.S.) is to provide essential aid and support to businesses affected by disasters, particularly hurricanes and natural calamities, in the Gulf Coast region. Our goal is to assist local businesses in their efforts to recover and rebuild by offering a range of vital services, including consulting, resource guidance, connection establishment, marketing and supply provision. We also aim to facilitate the efforts of credible contractors arriving from outside the area to contribute to the rebuilding process. Small Business D.R.S. believes that restoring small businesses not only contributes to economic revival but also strengthens the overall resilience and vitality of the communities they serve.
