The Inn helps our community with food and shelter; health care and medical aid; and support and counselling. Most in demand donations needed are gloves, boots, coats (all can be new or gently used but laundered prior to donation) and new socks and new underwear.
November 28: Stars vs Kings Christmas Care Night
Join us for our home game on Friday November 28th, 7:30pm puck drop, as the St. Thomas Stars take on the Komoka Kings in support of Christmas Care. Fans who bring a donation in support of Christmas Care (toy or food) will receive 50% of your ticket price at the door. (minimum of 1 donation item required per person redeeming this discount).
This year, we are bringing back Teddy Bear Toss. When your St. Thomas Stars score their first goal, fans will be able to throw their Teddy Bears on the ice. These will then be collected and donated to Christmas Care. We are asking fans who are planning on bringing stuffed animals to have them in clear plastic bags so that we are ensuring they all stay dry throughout the night.

Calling all fans looking to give a little extra this holiday season! On November 29th from 12-2pm, the St. Thomas Stars will be supporting the Salvation Army Kettle Drive, and you’ll find some of your favourite Stars stationed at store entrances across the city — Giant Tiger, FreshCo, Walmart (Grocery & McDonald’s), Metro, Briwood, and the Real Canadian Superstore. It’s the season of giving — let’s make a difference together!

Pre-game fans can interact with first responders in our community, learn more about them, how you can support, and maybe even get a tour of some emergency vehicles.
