YOUR SUPPORT MAKES CRITICAL CARE, ANYWHERE POSSIBLE.

Helicopter

There’s more than one kind of winner with STARS LOTTERY. Those who win dream homes, vehicles, and cash prizes. And those who win when our helicopter lands. Wherever, whenever. Stranded on a backcountry trail, a remote worksite, or an empty rural highway – in unforeseen, unforgiving moments, STARS answers the call. 

Thanks to your continued support, our expert crews deliver leading-edge critical care that turns around the worst day of someone’s life. This year, thousands of prizes await. Every ticket you purchase does so much more than simply gives you a chance to win – it fuels our life-saving missions. And that's a win for everyone in Western Canada.

TAKING CRITICAL CARE FURTHER.

STARS flew 860 missions in Saskatchewan last year alone. Every call involves patients in critical need of our vital service, facing emergencies where care and transport by STARS crews is their best chance at survival. But we can’t do it without you.

“If STARS didn’t come out, I don’t believe I’d be sitting here today.”

Dennis Blackburn
STARS Very Important Patient


On a rainy afternoon on his 33rd birthday, Dennis Blackburn was using a tractor to dislodge his truck from a muddy hillside when he was thrown from his seat — the tractor then rolled over him. Suffering serious internal injuries, broken ribs and broken vertebrae, Dennis was transported by STARS and reach the hospital in just 11 minutes. Doctors feared he could be partially paralyzed, but he made a remarkable recovery and walked out of the hospital just over a week later. Now a passionate advocate for STARS, Dennis shares his story to raise awareness and support. "There are so many people that might not be here today without STARS," he says.
