This initiative, led by Pattison Media and other Alberta radio stations, was designed to raise funds for Jasper and those affected by the wildfires.

Earlier in the day, members of the Big Country 93.1, 98.9 Rewind Radio, and EverythingGP teams went to the Resources Road bottle depot and made donations of their own.
