Investing in the People of Edmonton
We live here, we work here and many of us grew up here. Edmonton is near and dear to our team at Crosstown Chrysler. To keep the community alive and well, we regularly contribute to local charities to help those in our area that need it most. Find out more about our favourite organizations and what they’re doing to make Edmonton a better place for everyone below!
The Mustard Seed
Focused on reducing poverty and helping those who are currently homeless, The Mustard Seed supplies vulnerable members of the Edmonton community with clothing, personal hygiene materials, food, health services, employment programs, education and housing. This Christian charity operates out of five different locations across the city including the Community Support Centre, Neighbour Centre and Mosaic Centre.
Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation
Nothing is more heartbreaking than the effects of childhood disease and injury. The Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation supports the children’s hospital in Edmonton by raising awareness about the hospital’s needs through fundraisers, events and media outreach. Thanks to this incredible organization, millions of dollars have been collected for hospital improvements and specialized programs like early autism intervention and better mental health access.
Cure Foundation
Another amazing organization taking steps to end illness is the Cure Foundation -- a charity that is fighting breast cancer by funding research about the disease, buying better equipment for hospitals aiming to eradicate it and providing community programs in Edmonton for women going through treatment right now.
The Mazankowski Alberta Heart Institute
This incredible institute ran by the University Hospital Foundation is changing the way we treat Canada’s second most dangerous health epidemic -- heart disease. This cardiac care program has been able to fund the building of a cardiac hybrid operating room enabling open-heart surgeries and transplants that would not have been possible just a few years ago. They continue to increase their capacity and capability, saving the lives of people throughout Alberta.

Earth Group
The harsh reality is that millions of children today do not have access to proper food or education. Because we’re all members of the Earth community, Crosstown Chrysler proudly purchases Earth Group products and supports fundraisers from this organization, helping the children of tomorrow have a chance at a happy future.
Ronald McDonald House Charities
Easing the struggle for families caring for seriously ill or injured children, Ronald McDonald House Charities for Northern Alberta provides 35 suites at its Edmonton house for families receiving treatment inside the city. By allowing the whole family to stay in a comfortable home instead of commuting hours back and forth each day, stress is lowered and precious time can be spent together.
