Mission statement:	Fang Protective Services (FPS) is a 501 (3) (c) organization dedicated to enhancing the safety and security of medical missions and faith-based humanitarian teams as they are deployed internationally. When Hurricane Mitch hit Central America in October of 1998, it was the deadliest storm to hit the Western Hemisphere in over 200 years. Honduras and Nicaragua were two of nations most heavily impacted by the storm. Mitch served as our introduction to disasters and the people who risk life and limb to respond to them. After fifteen years of traveling to war zones, natural disasters, and places of wretched poverty, we have gained a profound respect for the men and women who willing spend time and resources to help others in hard places under difficult circumstances. Fang Protective Services was founded to serve and protect the men and women who are inspired to help others. FPS is a constituent of the Overseas Security Council of Diplomatic Security of US State Department.
