REGINA — Due to the ongoing challenges of the Canada Post strike, STARS is asking donors to consider a different donation method to help ensure critical care services are not impacted this holiday season.
In a typical December, more than 65 per cent of STARS donations arrive through the mail. With mail delivery currently delayed, STARS is asking donors to consider donating online, or in person at one of its six bases across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
“Due to the Canada Post strike, your timely support is more crucial than ever. By donating online, over the phone or in person, you ensure that your generous contribution reaches us without delay, helping us continue our vital work during the holiday season,” said Katherine Emberly, president and CEO, STARS.
“Delivering critical care anywhere is not possible without the support of our community donors, and we sincerely appreciate everyone’s willingness to be flexible with their donation methods. Our team is here to support and will help guide you through the process to ensure your donation reaches us without interruption.”
Donating online is quick, easy and secure. Donors navigating the STARS website can rest assured their information is protected throughout the donation process. To donate online please visit .
