support our work

Search and rescue in British Columbia is provided at no cost to the people who need help. We believe that concerns about cost should never delay a call for assistance, as hesitation can put lives at risk.

While our services are always free, search and rescue is not free to operate. Equipment, training, vehicles, and facilities are essential to keeping our volunteer team operational, safe, and ready to respond.

Comox Valley Search & Rescue is a registered Canadian charity, and donations made through CanadaHelps are eligible for an official tax receipt. Your support plays a critical role in our ability to respond effectively when people need help most.

We also accept donations by Interac e-transfer to info@cvgsar.com.

Tax receipts can be issued for donations of $20 or more. E-transfers are preferred, as they allow more of your donation to go directly toward supporting our search and rescue operations by avoiding third-party processing fees.

Donating a vehicle is another meaningful way to support our work. Through our vehicle donation program, cars, trucks, and other vehicles can be turned into direct support for training, equipment, and readiness, while also offering an easy alternative to traditional cash donations. It’s a practical way to make a lasting impact using something you may no longer need.
