Charity

It is our organizational mission to give back. A portion of all conference proceeds are donated to nonprofit organizations or to provide SRNA scholarship opportunities.

Military Donations

We are privileged to be involved with Military Connections. A non-profit organization based out of Pittsburgh, PA that provides support packages to deployed military members.

Our most recent contribution supported the annual Christmas Stocking drive. This initiative shipped full stockings of goodies to our overseas military members. This years goal is 1500 stockings!

If you would like to join in the mission, donate at their website listed below or use this amazon wish list link to purchase much needs supplies for military care packages.

Food Bank

During the initial surge of Covid 19 cases, we were involved with the Westmoreland County, PA food bank. A portion of our Spring 2020 conference was donated to assist with the immediate need in the area related to closure of businesses and livelihood concerns in our home town.

Yearly donations are a SAS tradition.

Hope Project

The Montana Hope Project began in 1984 when a handful of Montana Highway Patrol Officers reached out to a couple of kids with life-threatening illnesses. They dug into their own pockets, borrowed a van, and took the kids and their families on a trip to Glacier Park.

Sponsored by the Association of Montana Troopers, the Montana Hope Project originated from the strong desire of Troopers to offer a special and unique service to the communities they served.
