MRA Needs - Products and Services
Home >

Your products and services can have significant cash value to MRA. Possibilities fall into 3 categories.

1) Items that we otherwise fund out of our MRA budget.

2) Products we convert to cash by a raffle and silent auction at our Spring Conference. This is the source of almost 20% of our annual budget.

3) Others things that would allow MRA to do new and additional things in support of "saving lives through rescue and mountain safety education".

Donors of products and services receive BENEFACTOR, PATRON, SUMMITER and  SUPPORTER recognition and a letter documenting the market value or the donation to the MRA, a charitable and non-profit 501(c) 3.
