Make a donation.

ATSAR teams have participated in hundreds of searches since our founding in 2007. Our teams have brought closure to many families and saved public safety agencies millions of dollars through the use of volunteer resources. All ATSAR services provided to requesting agencies and to the family of the lost person are provided free of charge.  No person or agency is ever billed for ATSAR’s services.

ATSAR members incur all costs including gas, vehicles, training, equipment, and dog expenses. By donating to ATSAR, a non-profit organization with 501(c)3 status [EIN: 56-2453288], you can help offset the cost borne by each member. ATSAR accepts donations of cash or equipment.

Your tax-deductible donation to ATSAR will be used for such things as communications equipment, medical equipment, and training stipends for team members.

Please send your tax-deductible donations to:
Alpha Team K9 Search and Rescue, Inc.
2897 N Druid Hills Rd, #169 Atlanta, GA 30329

You can also donate using your Venmo account.

ATSAR is a proud recipient of the GuideStar Gold Seal.

Leave a Legacy

Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT)

A charitable remainder unitrust can provide you and/or other beneficiaries with income for life or for a fixed number of years. Many people prefer to use real estate to fund a CRT, but you can also donate cash or appreciated securities. For your donation, you receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your contribution to the unitrust and savings on capital gains taxes, too. You will also have the satisfaction of making a significant gift that benefits you now and ATSAR later. With this type of gift, you can:

• Avoid paying capital gains on sales of appreciated stock and real estate

• Receive a significant charitable income tax deduction

• Remove assets from your taxable estate

• At your death, the trust assets are used for the charitable purposes that you have specified

Since a CRT's suitability varies greatly based on individual circumstances, consulting a financial advisor is strongly recommended.

Workplace-Giving

If you work for a company, organization, or the federal government, chances are you’ve had the opportunity to participate in a workplace-giving program.

Workplace-giving programs can take many different forms. These employer-sponsored programs typically offer employees the opportunity to make a charitable contribution through recurring payroll deductions or other payment methods. Payroll deduction makes it easy and efficient to make tax-deductible donations to the charities you care about.  Some employers also offer matching gift programs which can significantly enhance the impact of your donation.

Your employer distributes your donation to ATSAR directly out of your paycheck in a cost-efficient manner. Workplace-giving programs reduce ATSAR's administrative and fundraising burden.
