CCGA(Q) is funded in part by the Canadian Coast Guard to which it helps. This funding pays for the reimbursement of expenses incurred during a mission, and insurance for its members. But the organization must find additional funds to maintain its rescue services, provide its members with adequate search and rescue equipment and material, and to assure their continual training.
Your geberous support for our mission of search and rescue, is essential so that we can continue to provide a comprehensive and high-quality search and rescue service.
Donations to the Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary (Quebec) will help our members to buy, repair or renew their equipment, and in some cases, to even purchase a defibrillator. They also serve to inform the public of the important role that the
CCGA(Q) is active in the activities of boating safety, awareness and prevention.
It´s simple and easy to make a contribution to the CCGA(Q) through the online form below powered by CanadaHelps.org.
You can choose to direct your donation to a CCGA unit near you or you can support our organization directly, as we set our annual priorities for search and rescue and volunteer training. In this case, please choose the "greatest need" tab to support all the units spread over our territory.
