We would like to recognize and thank all of our sponsors who made The Trevor Claydon Fundraiser possible and successful.

Thank you for supporting first responder mental health and our mission to reduce first responder su***des.

This was our first ever event and I cannot express enough gratitude for the people that made it a success. From the silent auction donations, equipment donations and bands donating their time, to the volunteers that made it all happen. Thank you to everyone for supporting The Trevor Claydon Fundraiser and first responder su***de prevention.

The easiest way to prevent su***de is by talking about it and on a beautiful day that we had there was a lot of chatter, music, smiles, and laughter. Considering everyday before and everyday after is rainstorms, there must have been someone (or multiple people) looking after us.

Thank you everyone and we hope to see you all next year at an even bigger and better Trevor Claydon Fundraiser.

Throughout the month of June, the Claydon Family and The Flare Initiative are raising money for first responder su***de prevention in honour of Trevor Claydon. He was a father, a husband, a friend, an Edmonton Police Officer, and so much more.

"If his story helps even one person, it matters."

Meet Trevor.

Husband. Father. Officer. Friend.

Trevor Claydon served the Edmonton Police Service and showed up โ€” at work, at home, and for the people he loved. He cared deeply about others, and that's the part of him we want to carry forward.

From his wife:

"This fundraiser is about honouring Trevor, raising awareness, and ensuring others get the support they need. If his story helps even one person, it matters."

On June 14, we're gathering at Blue Meadows for a day in his honour, and in support of every first responder, every family, and every person quietly carrying weight that deserves to be shared.

Bring your kids. Bring your neighbours. And bring an appetite for food, fun, and community connection.

Be part of his legacy.
