FUNDING

 

The East Hants Ground Search & Rescue is a non-registered non-profit
charitable society comprised of approximately fifty-five dedicated unpaid
professionals. Our team has been offering specialized public service to the residents
and visitors of East Hants since 1980.

In order to provide our quality services the team trains on a regular basis to maintain
a high level of professional emergency service to the community.

Although our team receives funding from our municipality, an the Province of Nova Scotia which doesn't even cover
basic operating expenses (telephones, pagers, insurance, fuel, to name a few) ,
our annual expenses far exceed this budgeting assistance. We rely upon
generous citizens and organizations for monetary donations to fill those
important gaps.

New equipment purchases, replacement of worn out equipment, and specialized
training costs rely solely on the success of fundraising endeavors, donations we
receive during public events and through funds donated by community services and
generous citizens.
