I volunteered with the Pegasus Project for STARS for three years, providing social media and communications support to strengthen awareness and fundraising efforts. Through active involvement in planning meetings and ongoing content development, the work helped support a campaign that raised over $3 million for STARS Air Ambulance. This project was particularly meaningful to me, reflecting my strong belief in community-driven work and the power of collective impact.
ABOUT THE PEGASUS PROJECT
The Pegasus Project was announced in 2019 by a group of automotive enthusiasts who care deeply about the people of Saskatchewan and about the critical work of first responders like STARS. The project centres on a completely custom-built, one-of-a-kind, 1968 Ford Mustang 427 Fastback that was featured at the International SEMA Convention in Las Vegas, November 2021. The car will now be sold at the world-famous Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona in January 2022, with proceeds to STARS’ Keep the Fight in Flight capital campaign to renew its fleet of aging helicopters. The project’s name “Pegasus” was derived from three important elements: WINGS (helicopter), HORSE (Mustang), and, of course, STARS (both constellation and the air ambulance).
