EMERGENCY COMMUNITY RESPONSE
APPLICATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED FOR THIS PROGRAM
The Prince Albert & Area Community Foundation Inc. activated the Emergency Community Support Fund in partnership with the Community Foundations of Canada.
The COVID-19 pandemic has been an unpredictable and challenging time for many, with some communities experiencing higher levels of vulnerability than others. Marginalized groups, youth, children and the elderly, essential workers, and newcomers are just some of the communities that have faced increased challenges. To provide emergency relief, the Government of Canada launched the Emergency Community Support Fund (ECSF) to help support communities made increasingly vulnerable by the pandemic.
This Funding Program is now CLOSED.
PAACF, in partnership with Community Foundations of Canada, allocated a total of $155,000 to diverse groups in our area. The funds were intended to assist groups with providing help to vulnerable people, affected by COVID-19.
