The Pegasus Project will come to an exciting finale on Friday in Arizona when a custom-built 1968 Ford Mustang 427 Fastback will be auctioned off at the world famous Barret-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale. The proceeds will go towards helping STARS air ambulance replace its fleet of aircrafts.

Former Humboldt Bronco, Kaleb Dahlgren has announced he will be donating all of the proceeds from his book Crossroads to the project. Dahlgren also challenged the public to to match his contribution over the next few days to raise more than $100,000 dollars combined for the air ambulance service. So far, the former Bronco has collected $51,143.89 through his book sales, all of which will go to STARS.

Co-Chair of the Pegasus Project, Vaughn Wyant says they wanted to do something special in the wake of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash. “On the heels of the Humboldt bus crash and it’s a disaster that is kind of etched in everybody’s mind and most of us remember where we were and it was tough you know cause it affects so many families. On the prairies and right across Canada parents have been putting their kids on bus rides for years and years and it’s really tough.” You can see the car auctioned off live at 3 o’clock Friday afternoon on the History Channel.

STARS responds to almost 900 calls in Saskatchewan alone each year. Those interested in donating can do so by clicking here.
