Donate to Visar

Our Crew Members dedication to VISAR’s mission and their passion for helping others allows us to respond on a year-around basis for medical emergencies and search and rescues throughout the British Virgin Islands.

We are expected to solve a wide variety of problems in every conceivable condition of weather and conditions. To meet this challenge, we depend entirely on contributions and volunteer efforts. We do not charge for our services so we need your support!

Contributions go towards training our crew in First Aid/CPR/AED and Advanced Medic courses, replenishing our medical equipment, servicing and replacing our gear and other overhead expenses.

While we do have one full time administrative that concentrates on fundraising and administrative duties, ALL of our crew members are volunteers.

Our Mission is to save lives at sea.

Virgin Islands Search And Rescue is a Non-Profit Organisation

VISAR relies entirely on donations from members, corporate sponsors and fundraising efforts, in order to stay in operation. Much of our support comes from the Bareboat Charter Community in the form of a program that began in 1981 called "Dollar Per Person."

Training and cooperation with the United States Coast Guard

The British Virgin Islands, being near to Puerto Rico and the USVI, provide VISAR unique opportunities to cross-train with US Coast Guard crew. This train is to benefit both crews in the event there is ever need for medical evacuation from the sea.

A warm thanks to all of our supporters and sponsors.

Without your exceedingly generous contributions, this organisation simply would not be what is it today. From all of the Volunteers, Crew, and Board of Directors, we lend our most sincere gratitude.
