The 15:13 Foundation – Supporting Those Who Show Up When It Matters Most

At the 15:13 Foundation, we exist to back the brave. We raise funds to support volunteer Search and Rescue (SAR) teams—those selfless individuals who answer the call when someone goes missing, a disaster strikes, or a life hangs in the balance.

These heroes don’t do it for the paycheck. They do it for the mission. And we’re here to make sure they’re never held back by a lack of resources.

Why We Exist

Every year, volunteer Search and Rescue teams respond to thousands of emergencies—lost hikers, flood rescues, avalanche recoveries, and so much more. These teams often operate with limited budgets, worn-out equipment, and outdated training. That’s where we come in.

The 15:13 Foundation provides critical funding for:

  • 🚁 Life-saving Missions – Covering fuel, supplies, and logistics for emergency callouts.
  • 🎒 Essential Gear – Outfitting volunteers with high-performance equipment to keep them—and those they rescue—safe.
  • 📚 Advanced Training – Ensuring teams stay at the top of their game through specialized instruction and certification programs.

What “15:13” Means

Inspired by John 15:13 – “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”
This is the heart of Search and Rescue. The selfless courage to step into danger for the sake of others—often strangers. We honor that commitment by standing behind them.
