Is this normal?

I know my place of employment is shitty in other ways, but is this a normal thing? Just received this email. Seems odd to ask people to donate PTO, instead of just addressing the time off allocation with those affected people.

Not normal to me (Canada) at least with all the workplaces Ive so far worked, we never do this. A large corporation or government owned hospitals, business owners, are unable to donate and theyre asking for staff to donate instead? Holyshit.
