We are a non-profit all volunteer organization. There can be quite a bit of expense involved in running the organization, so we rely heavily on fundraising and donations. Below are several ways that you can help:

  1. Food Lion will donate up to $350 per quarter to WCSAR if participating MVP card members link Wake Canine Search and Rescue (WCSAR) to their card - either on line at www.foodlion.com/ -see Fundraising and Register card links. If already registered for 2003 you must re-link your card by the end of 4th qtr for 2004. You can also call their customer service number at 704-633-8250 X3810.  You simply shop for your groceries as normal and Food lion will donate a percentage of your total bill to WCSAR when you use your MVP card.  Linking your card is very easy to do, and it only takes a few minutes. WCSAR's mailing address is Knightdale, NC (you'll need this info to register).
  2. For those of you who prefer an online mall to the real thing, there is another unique opportunity for you to help.  Simply go to www.igive.com and pick Wake Canine Search and Rescue as your charitable, non-profit organization (or use direct link www.iGive.com/html/refer.cfm?causeid=22980) , then shop at participating retailers. A portion of your total bill will be donated each time you shop.You can also download an auto window that will notify you when you open a participating website (like Barnes and Noble or PetsMart.com).
  3. Your tax deductible check is always welcomed! Make it out to WCSAR and mail it to the address listed at the bottom of our Home page.
  4. We are always in need of folks to be ‘victims’ for our canine handlers – call one of the Search Commanders listed on our Home page for details.
  5. Do not think you have to be a canine handler to join WCSAR! Review our Membership Information and then e-mail or call one of our Search Commanders for more details!
