Did you know that Horry County Search and Rescue (HCSAR) is a professional, all-volunteer 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization? They are a team of highly trained volunteers who are ready to respond 24/7 to locate and rescue missing persons—all at no cost to families or requesting agencies.
Why your donation matters:
Life-Saving Equipment: Your support helps HCSAR purchase and maintain critical gear like GPS trackers, thermal imaging drones, communication systems, and rescue kits. This equipment is essential for expanding search coverage and improving situational awareness, especially in the county's diverse terrain, from beaches and swamps to hurricane-damaged neighborhoods.
Rigorous Training: Volunteers dedicate hundreds of hours to training and certifications, and donations help cover the costs of courses, instructor travel, and joint-agency drills. This ensures their members are fully qualified before deployment.
Operational Readiness: Donations ensure the team can respond quickly to emergencies by covering costs for fuel, vehicle maintenance, and mobile command technology.
Volunteer Support: While every member serves without pay, donations also help offset out-of-pocket expenses for essential personal protective equipment (PPE), ensuring that finances never prevent a willing volunteer from participating in a life-saving mission.
HCSAR is a force multiplier for public safety, providing critical, specialized services to the community. By donating, you are helping to ensure that a highly trained and well-equipped team is always ready to respond when the call for help comes.
Your contribution directly impacts our ability to save lives. Please consider coming out and making a donation and help us support this vital mission!
