Eyes in the sky.
Hearts on the ground.
Our Mission
SAR Division | APAK exists to bridge the gap between tragedy and hope. We deploy FAA Part 107 certified drone pilots equipped with 640×512 radiometric thermal sensors to assist emergency responders and communities across Texas.
We do not charge agencies. We do not bill families. We operate entirely on donations because we believe that in a crisis, the ability to pay should never determine who gets found.
Our Journey Begins
Pending Donations & Funding
SAR Division | APAK is currently in the startup phase. We have the pilots, the certifications, and the equipment standing by. What we need now is the community's support to cover operational costs—insurance, travel, batteries, and equipment maintenance.
Once we reach our initial funding goal, we'll be ready to deploy at a moment's notice to assist emergency responders and families across Texas.
Be the first to support this mission.
Every dollar moves us closer to our first deployment.
