About Us

Who we are

Tampa's first Wasteland/Apocalyptic themed Krewe — and a 501(c)(3) non-profit built to put that spectacle to work for kids.

Our Mission

To provide a better outcome for local community kids in need. To include, but not limited to, children within the foster care system, diverse youth programs and other at-risk minor/young adults in need. We will do this through financial support, mentoring programs, advocacy, and business partnerships.

Our Story

Wasteland on the outside, community on the inside

District of No-Mad Nation, doing business as No-Mad Nation, is Tampa's first Wasteland/Apocalyptic themed Krewe. Rust, leather, and scavenged rigs get us noticed at Gasparilla and at events across Tampa Bay. That attention is the point — it is what we convert into support for kids in the Greater Tampa Bay Area.

Behind the costumes is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. We raise money, we mentor, we advocate, and we bring local businesses to the table on behalf of young people who are too often overlooked: kids in foster care, kids in youth programs that run on nothing, and young adults aging out of a system that stops catching them.

How We Do It

Four ways we show up

Financial Support

Direct funding for kids and the programs that serve them, raised through our events and partnerships.

Mentoring Programs

Showing up consistently for young people who need adults in their corner.

Advocacy

Speaking up for at-risk youth and the foster care community across Tampa Bay.

Business Partnerships

Working with local businesses to multiply what a volunteer krewe can do alone.

Who We Serve

The kids at the center of it

Children in foster care

Kids navigating the foster system, who need stability and someone in their corner.

Diverse youth programs

Established local programs doing the work, amplified by our funding and volunteers.

At-risk minors and young adults

Young people facing hardship in the Greater Tampa Bay Area, including those aging out of care.

Transparency

Our non-profit status

District of No-Mad Nation, doing business as No-Mad Nation, is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization serving the Greater Tampa Bay Area. Donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

Ride with us

Whether you give, partner, or pull on the leather and join the krewe — it all lands in the same place: kids in Tampa Bay who need someone in their corner.
