Rescue On The Island 2020
Rescue on the Island is the flagship fundraising event for STARS in Manitoba and with the generous support of colleagues, businesses, friends and family, our participants have helped to raise over $1,8 million dollars to support the work of STARS.
The Challenge
Each participant is required to raise $50,000 and the rescue only happens when that goal has been reached or exceeded. The participants are equipped with a cell phone and have access to friends and family for morale support in the form of donations. On June 11, 2020, a group of brave community leaders will trade in their business attire for flight suits, and climb onboard the STARS air ambulance helicopter for a unique mission. Each participant will compete to raise as much money as possible to earn a flight back to civilization, using the only tool they’ll have – their cell phones. The intrepid participants will undertake a variety of challenges on the island to help secure their escape.
