Throughout the United States and around the world, there are hundreds of thousands of missing persons as a result of accidents, foul play and warfare. One of the most fundamental and universal measures of dignity and respect any person deserves is the right to a culturally appropriate final resting place. As it stands, the opportunities for that vary broadly depending upon where the person is missing and the economic status of their family. Government efforts are limited by competing budgetary needs. As a 501c3 nonprofit (EIN 82-1702503), we can provide similar services.
Simply stated: the current state of search and recovery efforts is far from ideal due to insufficient resources and a lack of uniform application of modern procedures, technology and training. Your support helps provide those resources and capabilities where they would not otherwise be available
Thank you in advance for your generous support that helps locate, recover, and return missing persons-- civilian and military-- to their families.
