More than a half-million raised during STARS Critical Care on the Air Radiothon

The 2025 STARS’ Critical Care on the Air Radiothon raised a record-breaking $565K in support of their mission of providing critical care, whenever and wherever it is needed.

STARS President and CEO Dr. John Froh says the organization is “incredibly grateful” for the support from dozens of communities across the three participating provinces.

We were proud to see all of the STARS stories broadcast across Western Canada, connecting the communities we serve with our mission, raising critical funds and providing insight into our life-saving operations,” he says. 

The two-day radiothon broadcasted across 50 radio stations in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, and featured stories from STARS crew members and VIPs or- Very Important Patients, giving those who tuned in the chance to hear their inspiring stories of survival and bravery.
