Alaska Search and Rescue Emergency Response Team
 

Taking Care Of Alaska One Emergency At A Time 

Our Mission

Introducing our team, the Alaska Search and Rescue Emergency Response Team (ASARERT), we are a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Our team was established in 2020 and although we seem new, our members have over 20 years’ experience combined and we are based out of Fairbanks, and work within our community as well as all over the state of Alaska. We specialize in search management, emergent volunteer management, and fast response. We handle searches and rescues, as well as, disasters, or other emergencies in our communities and are always striving for professional excellence. Our team is nationally certified by the National Association of Search and Rescue (NASAR.org), mountain rescue, as a FEMA CERT team and several other nationally and specialty specific associations. We function under the purview of the Alaska State Troopers and other requesting Agencies with authority over emergencies, searches or rescues.

About Us

ASARERT is a registered non-profit 501c3 organization all team members are from the local community in which they serve.


How to help us continue our work!

Why Donate?

Support us, so we can continue to respond!

Every member of ASARERT is an unpaid volunteer and receives no compensation for their services. We purchase most of our personal rescue equipment out of our own pockets.  All funding for training, equipment and organizational overhead comes entirely from local donors, grants and charities.  ASARERT does not charge for our services.  We do not receive an annual operational budget or funds from any government entity.  Without donations and supportive community members, ASARERT would not be able to continue to exist.
