Emergency Community Support Fund
The Red Deer & District Community Foundation is proud to participate in the regional implementation of the Emergency Community Support Fund, created by the Government of Canada in order to support the charities and nonprofits who help the individuals hardest hit by the economic and social consequences of the pandemic. The ECSF aims to help those organizations adapt and continue providing resources and frontline services to marginalized and vulnerable people. To learn more, read our press release.
In our region, RDDCF will work closely with United Way Central Alberta and Community Foundations of Canada to process applications and ensure the distribution of grants to eligible charities and nonprofits.
