Every Rescue Starts with You!

Tonto Rim Search and Rescue (TRSAR) is a dedicated team of over 60 highly trained volunteers who are on call 24/7, 365 days a year. These brave men and women respond to more than 100 rescues annually, providing their life-saving services free of charge to those in need.

However, TRSAR relies entirely on community support to maintain the training, supplies, and specialized equipment necessary to perform rescues safely and effectively. 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to supporting our team and its mission.

Your donation makes a direct impact, for example:

    • $50 helps cover the expense of one squad member attending Wilderness First Aid training.
    • $100 provides essential gear for one K9 team member, including harness and safety vest.
    • $250 equips one rescuer with critical safety gear such as a helmet and set of hiking poles.
    • $500 funds medical supplies and first aid kits used during emergency responses.
    • $1,000 enables the purchase of one 800 Mhz radio ensuring better communication between the team and first responder teams.
    • $1,500 helps maintain and upgrade GPS and communications equipment, ensuring precise search coordination.
    • $2,000 covers advanced technical rope rescue training, allowing our team to perform life-saving operations in extreme terrain.
    • $5,000+ supports the purchase of specialized rescue equipment, such as one titanium litter.

Your support ensures that when the call comes, our team is ready. Whether it’s lost hikers, injured climbers, or emergency extractions in challenging conditions, your generosity saves lives in Rim Country’s vast outdoor spaces.
