Help us help others

We really need your help

It is a common misconception that the Coast Guard Auxiliary is funded by the government - we are not. When you consider that the volunteers of the Coast Guard Auxiliary must raise all the funds necessary so that they can go out in all manner of weather to assist others in need (even pay for the gas) - it's hard not to answer our call for help.

Our volunteers donate countless hours of their time to train and actively participate as a significant part of the front-line response to marine distress in Canada. They must also volunteer even more of their time to actively raise the funds necessary to keep us afloat - and that's no small order:

Some of the expences we raise money for:

New Rescue Vessel ~ $160,000.00
Insurance per year ~ $10,000.00
Crew SAR & Survival Gear ~ $25,000.00
Gas and Moorage ~ $10,000.00

So we ask for your support - not for us, but for those that need us.
