Keeping their memory alive through training and service.

Early in 2020, TEXSAR (Texas Search and Rescue) had to send an unexpected farewell to TEXSAR member Carine Chalfoun who passed away February 18th, 2020. A few days after we lost Carine, her dear father passed away leaving two very empty voids in the hearts of their beloved family members and friends.

To keep their memories alive the Chalfoun Family has begun the Carine and Cesar Chalfoun First Responders Fund which will award scholarships to deserving and dedicated TEXSAR members, up to $500 a month. These funds will cover the cost of personal protective equipment and/or additional training necessary to serve. Public service, education, and training were very important to Carine and her father, a perfect way to honor their memory.

If you wish to contribute to the scholarship fund in honor of Carine and Cesar, donations can be made below.
