The United States Water Patrol is a 100%  All volunteer organization, No one receives pay for any services or time used by it's members. Also the U.S. Water Patrol does not receive any Funding or Grants from any Federal, State or Local Government's. Gas, Equipment, Supply's and repairs are paid with donations from our members and You the Public.

The United States Water is currently celebrating 10 years of providing Homeland Security Support / Public Safety and a number of services free, to the to the public both on water and land nation wide. We have a lot to be grateful for and many people to thank for how successful we've been! The U.S. Water Patrol  is assisting hundreds of people every month, which might even make it more widespread than some of the biggest public service providers. And, proving that we really make a difference, our popularity has allowed us to collaborate with countless talented individuals who have helped us keep the U.S. water Patrol safe and free. 

But fame has its price. The U.S. Water Patrol has always been run by a small group of volunteers, and we've never been paid for our efforts. We do it because this is our passion; we do it for the love and the fun. But running  high-profile projects means that there is a plethora of work from which no one gets much fun (or love). That's taken its toll -- our number of responses have increased and our visionary initiatives for our providing better Security patrols & Public Safety have had to take a back seat to ongoing maintenance, such as boat maintenance to Safety equipment replacement, more public safety responses, Gas, and a slew of other responsibilities. Oh, and then there's paying the bills,

So it's time to ask our community for help. In the best scenario, The U.S.W.P. should be able to support one or two full time patrol teams, To some, this may seem overly ambitious, but we don't think so. Think of the good money that has been raised by projects that can be considered far less mission-critical than Homeland Security & Public Safety. We don't think any other projects are less deserving than the USWP; only that the USWP is quite worthy of your support, especially after 10 years of doing it all gratis. With support on a significant scale, the project will regain momentum, that "we can become more affective in assistance to the public and help protect our waterways.

We'd like to have you show your support by simply donating whatever you feel you can afford. Currently, you can choose to donate to any of us individually (if you have stipulations about how the money should be used/shared, let us know and we will be very happy to oblige). We are also trying out a primitive bounty system, in case you want to target your money for a specific feature or improvement. If you need a US tax exemption for your donation, please contact us directly.
