The Northwest Region and its member patrols are composed of volunteers that are not paid for the work they do.  These organizations are able to continue serving the public at ski areas in the Northwest because of the support of their member patrollers and from the generosity of the general public.  You can think of it as a tip for the great care you received when you injured yourself once or a good-karma donation in case you ever require assistance from one of our patrollers.

How to donate:

You may make a donation to a specific patrol or to the region.  Two methods are available.  You may mail a check to the Northwest Region Director, Elizabeth Dodge, or you may make a donation online through the United Way website.  The United Way will allow you to specify a "Write-in Agency" to make the donation to.  Please specify if you would like your donation to go to the region or to a specific patrol.  Note that donating through the United Way website requires a $30 minimum due to processing costs.  If you wish to donate less than $30 please mail a check to the below address.

The address to make the donation to is:

Elizabeth Dodge
Northwest Region Director, PNWD, NSP
