Redtag.ca Partnered with the SickKids Foundation
On August 14th, Redtag.ca announced a special initiative in partnership with the SickKids Foundation. On this day, 1% of all bookings made on the travel platform were donated directly to the foundation. The initiative was dubbed 'SickKids Day.'
This event marks marked Redtag.ca's 20th anniversary and its ninth year supporting SickKids Foundation. The partnership is driven by a personal connection, as one of the company's founders and many of its staff members have personal ties to SickKids, either as former patients or as parents of children who have received care there.
This campaign is part of redtag.ca’s broader commitment to philanthropy, which includes year-round fundraising activities like the Annual Charity Golf Classic and a recent multi-year agreement that secured the company naming rights to a staff lounge at SickKids.
