The AARC has opened its Disaster Relief Fund for members affected by the recent flooding and storms that occurred in Mississippi. The declaration expires May 19, 2026.

AARC members living in officially declared disaster areas in this state may apply for a grant of up to $500 online or by mail.

We ask that if you know of a fellow member who has been affected, please share this post with them, as they may not have internet access. The fund is all about AARC members helping members.

Donate to the Fund
The fund would not be possible without the generous donations from the AARC membership. If you would like to contribute to AARC’s Disaster Relief Fund, send a check made payable to AARC, P.O. Box 630007, Irving, TX 75063-9998, and put “Disaster Fund” in the memo section of the check. You can also donate online or call Crystal Leighton at (972) 406-4682 to make a donation via credit card.

The next step of your respiratory therapist journey begins now.

The AARC can help you discover your unique path and connect you with thousands of other dedicated RTs.
