NM Search and Rescue is entirely a volunteer force — we largely spend our own personal money for the specialized gear and equipment necessary to organize, conduct, and participate in SAR missions. Occasionally some of the equipment is simply too specialized and too expensive for individual purchase (and should the volunteer be expected to buy rescue equipment with personal funds?). Examples include Starlink, a portable repeater, and mobile ADSB aircraft tracking. In order for NM SAR to continue serving the public with the best tools and technology available, we need financial support. We appreciate donations for our on-going efforts to maintain and improve this important public service. Thank you for your donations!
