At the PJ Association, 100% of all funds donated by individuals will go to our family and Brotherhood support funds. Our staff and team is made up of 100% volunteers. We raise funds from the sales of memorabilia items, our PJ Reunions and the PJ Rodeo, A competition amongst our Special Operations and Guardian Angel Teams every two years.

These functions as well as our dues and other events help cover all operating cost. We focus on doing things to keep the memories and history of Pararescue going.

Thank you again for your continued support and God Bless our Troops.
