Community Partner Program

When disaster strikes or a loved one goes missing, Rescue 101 Search and Rescue stands ready to respond — day or night, in any condition. But our volunteers don’t do it alone.

Behind every successful mission are businesses, organizations, and individuals who believe in our purpose and invest in our ability to serve others.

Through the Community Partners Program, you can directly support search and rescue missions, disaster relief operations, volunteer training, and community safety education, while gaining meaningful recognition for your commitment to saving lives.

Your partnership doesn’t just make a difference; it becomes the difference.

Rescue 101 Search and Rescue is a 100% volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization serving communities across Ohio and the United States.

We specialize in ground and K9 search operations, UAV (drone) support, disaster response, dive rescue, and community outreach, all funded entirely by donations, grants, and local partnerships.

When you join as a Community Partner, you’re not only helping keep our teams trained, equipped, and mission-ready — you’re joining a network of organizations dedicated to public safety, preparedness, and compassion.

Every contribution is tax-deductible, and every dollar goes directly toward saving lives.
