I think I hit a nail or something yesterday when I was working on that alley…

Oh my gosh we got a submission on the website, so we have someone that desperately needs our help! The city gave her a deadline of tonight to get this section of “alley” cleaned up, so we are going back as soon as I get off work!

If you know someone that needs help the site is:

I just want to be real with you for a second.

West Texas is in a serious drought right now. The ground is cracked, the grass is barely hanging on, and honestly... there is not much growing out here. That means work has slowed down, but it also means something else. There are people in our community who could really use a helping hand, but I am struggling to find them.

I am actively out here searching for someone to help, but I could use YOUR help too. If you know of anyone, a neighbor, a family member, someone in your town, who is struggling and could use what we do, please let me know.

You can submit their information through the form on our website:

Something NEW is live and y’all are going to get first access!

Over the past few weeks, I built derekscommunityrescue.com/

To be a home for everything this channel stands for outside of YouTube.

Two things I want you to do:
Sign up for One Good Thing, my free weekly newsletter. One positive story every week to remind you the world is still good. Plus you’ll always know what’s coming next before anyone else does.
Nominate a neighbor. Know someone whose yard has gotten away from them? Someone who needs a hand but won’t ask? Put their name in. That’s how the next rescue happens.

The news says the world is broken. We’re out here proving them wrong one yard at a time.

Y'all, it's been a crazy week so I wasn't able to get out and film. But I've got something coming that I think is worth the wait.

There's an entire neighborhood story I've never fully told. 5 properties, close to 3 months, and some of you already know pieces of it. This week I'm putting it all together and telling the whole story from the beginning.

I think this one's going to surprise you

Huge thanks to everyone who has become a channel member or donated to help out!

Because of your support, I was able to get a storage unit for an entire year, so my equipment's out of the way and my cars are finally safe in the garage during hail season. I'm so grateful and just can’t say thank you enough

I just wanted to let yall know. This most recent short is a joke where my daughter was saying she would push me into the street if I don’t pay her allowance 🤣

I’m perfectly fine and am out looking for the next long form video to film.

This has been a crazy week, and this specific property is hitting me harder than most. I will be going back out here today after work to finally get this finished.

To be honest, I have avoided this specific neighborhood for 12 years. Being back here has me on high alert, but I am not letting the past hold me back anymore. This project is about more than just a cleanup for the community; it is about me growing as a man and moving past a moment in my life that I have let have power over me for too long.

I am pushing through to the finish line today. I will explain everything in the video soon.
