Want to help with something more tangeble?
Check out our wish list for some of the things we need to perform at our best! Remember, even material gifts are tax deductable! Let us know when you want to give something and we will arrange a time and place to recieve and provide a reciept for your tax records. 

  1. First Aid Supplies - We are always restocking and updating our equipment for missions and training. All kinds of first aid equipment is desired. We are trained in community frist aid and CPR/AED. Heat and cold packs, SAM Splints, and bandages are all desired. 
  2. Rope - We need to replace rope every year. We keep it in great storage conditions, but it still needs to be replaced every now and then. Kernmantle ΓΈ10 mm and larger in lengths of 100 meters or longer is our stock.  
  3. Mountaineering Gear - Every team member maintains their own cloths and personal gear, however, sometimes we need more than what a person would own and we can always use gear to help our education programs. Ice axes, radios, avalanche beacons, climbing ropes, climbing gear, and much more is always a welcomed donation. 
  4. Radios - Communication is always critical, and in the wilderness, there is little to no cell coverage. We are seeking handheld public service radios in the VHF bands that are fully part 90 compliant. We hope to replace 24 radios in the next few years.
