The Swan Mission Search and Rescue Association is a nonprofit organization that is funded entirely through donations.  We receive NO tax funds from the State or County.  Our group occasionally holds fundraisers to help finance our day to day operations.  We regularly attend the Swan Lake Huckleberry Festival sponsored by the Swan Lake Chamber of Commerce in Swan Lake Montana.  We also hold raffles quite often for items such as 4X4 ATV's, rifles, art work, and other donated items.
    We are currently trying to raise money for a Search and Rescue building.  We have operated out of members houses and various fire halls over the last 30 years and the SMSAR has never had a home to call our own.  We are trying to raise $250,000 for a building and  land.  Any donations (or long term leases) of land and or buildings in Bigfork, or Swan Lake area would be most welcome.
    Swan Mission Search and Rescue will also accept any donation of funds, vehicles, or equipment.  We currently have one Rescue vehicle which is a 1970 International 4X4 with over 170,000 miles, and one 1990 Suburban with over 200,000 miles.  We have received may donations of equipment over the years and wish to express our deepest thanks to those who have made our mission a little easier.

    Any donations should be made out to Swan Mission Search and Rescue Association and should be mailed to the PO Box shown below.  For donations of equipment or supplies, please contact our Equipment Officer John "Jack" Ganiere at (406) 837-6818.
