STARS Rescue in the Rockies

October 4, 2024

After months of preparation and fundraising, September arrived, and our President & CEO, Andy Trewick, took on the challenge of STARS Rescue in the Rockies. Dressed in his flight suit, Andy and other participants were helicoptered to a remote location, where they faced challenges that simulate a typical day for a STARS crew member.

To secure his rescue back to civilization, Andy needed to raise $50,000. He surpassed that goal, raising $113,000 for STARS! These funds will go directly to support STARS, enabling them to be there for the next patient in need. On average, someone in the prairie provinces requires emergency, life-saving medical attention eleven times a day. Thanks to the generosity of Andy’s donors and supporters, STARS can continue to offer these individuals their best – or sometimes only – chance of survival.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated to Andy’s fundraiser and contributed to his efforts. Together, we’ve helped STARS provide critical care to patients in rural, remote, and Indigenous communities across western Canada.

A special thank you to all the Graham branches that hosted fundraising events and activities in support of Andy and Rescue in the Rockies!

Get a glimpse into the incredible work STARS does for real and enjoy watching our dedicated community leaders learn the ropes and have fun along the way. Watch the video.
