Letter from Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation re Proceeds:
We are excited to celebrate the launch of our 20th annual edition which features brave and hard working Fire Fighters from around the province.
The new Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital is a provincial referral centre for moms-to-be, families, and the over 200,000 children living in our province. Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital has leading-edge equipment and will host ground-breaking innovation bringing enhanced care to Saskatchewan kids who need it.
We are proud to raise funds for Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation. 100% of proceeds through the 2023 calendar project will go to this cause. Funds raised will ensure that the right equipment, enhancements, research, and technology can be purchased and realized within the walls of the new maternal and children’s hospital.
Fire Fighters know first hand how injured and sick children can change lives. Our goal is to do all we can to improve the lives of children and families in need. The individuals that appear in this calendar are real Fire Fighters, everyday heroes who risk their lives to save the lives and properties of total strangers. These Fire Fighters are donating their time to help Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation.
On behalf of the Fire Fighters involved from across the province, we would like to thank you for purchasing our 2023 calendar and count on your continued support in the future.
Fast Facts about the Calendar Project….
Proceeds
100% of the Proceeds from the Saskatchewan Fire Fighters Calendar goes to Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation. Through a legally binding agreement, our organization has agreed that we will not keep any portion of proceeds as compensation or profit. To ensure accountability, we have agreed to the inspection of all financial records associated with the project.
Partnership with Charity Extended for 5 Years
After working together on our first calendar edition, Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation was impressed with our work and renewed our partnership for not just one year but for an additional 5 year period. In 2023 the charity renewed our partnership for a further 5 years. We are now in our 7th year working together.
Our Organization is New
The Saskatchewan Fire Fighters calendar is produced by a newly created organization established in 2017. New people and processes have been added and a new organization structure has been introduced. Prior to the 2018 edition, the calendar was administered through a different charity who handled and approved expenses associated with the project. Retailers, Fire Fighters, and Sponsors sent money directly to that charity and they handled all money associated with the project.
The Fire Fighters are Real
Our calendar features both Professional/Career Fire Fighters as well as Volunteer Fire Fighters. We do not hire models – the hard working heroes you see in our calendar are real Fire Fighters!
Production Costs are Low
Our project is made possible through the committee members and Fire Fighters who donate their time. Like any fundraising project we do have some costs which are kept to a minimum thanks to services donated by sponsors. We do not pay any kind of percentage or large cost to a production or marketing company. Photography services are also fully donated. Our charity partner has reviewed our costs and are comfortable in continuing to work with us.
We Have Permission and Rights to Produce the Calendar
We do have full permission and rights to produce a Fire Fighters calendar including permissions transferred to us by our previous charity partner.
We Can Now Include All Types of Fire Fighters
With our change 7 years ago we were able to open up the calendar to include all Fire Fighters in the province including other Professional/Career Fire Fighters and to Volunteer Fire Fighters. Previously these Fire Fighters were not permitted to participate in the Fire Fighters Calendar due to a restriction by our previous charity partner and their affiliated association.
