Saving lives through partnership, innovation and leadership. The Shock Trauma Air Rescue Society (STARS) is a non-profit, charitable organization that provides 24 hour coverage for critical response to emergency injury sites. With air bases in Calgary, Edmonton and Grande Prairie, STARS territorial coverage is very similar to ClearStream’s geographic footprint. In short, they save lives in the communities we work in, and providing support to STARS directly aligns with our Core Values. An ClearStream contribution of $7,800 was made through participation at the STARS “Bling ‘n Boots” Gala event, where members of ClearStream’s Executive Team also made a personal donation of $1,000 to cover the cost of 1 hour of flight time for a STARS helicopter. |

Dedicated to Finding A Cure - The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is the worldwide leader in funding research to cure type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease that strikes children and adults suddenly, but lasts a lifetime. JDRF sets the global agenda for diabetes research, and is the largest charitable funder of, and advocate for, diabetes science worldwide. JDRF funding and leadership is associated with most major scientific breakthroughs in type 1 diabetes research to date.

In April of 2012 our company donated $5000 to the Northern Alberta arm of the JDRF in support of employees throughout the province who are affected by this disease. |
