Community Partnerships BC Floods 2018
Throughout the recovery process, the Canadian Red Cross works in partnership with community organizations towards the relief, recovery and resilience building of communities affected by disasters.
Community organizations play a critical role in recovery from disasters by helping to identify needs and gaps in services, leading coordination of recovery initiatives, providing services for the most vulnerable, and building community resilience to future emergencies.
Project grants are available for non-profits, charities, and other community organizations located in the Regional District of Kootenay-Boundary (RDKB) working towards the relief and recovery of residents impacted by the 2018 spring flooding. Priority will be provided to organizations that are providing critical services in the flood-impacted area and that are recognized as lead agencies in their field.
The Community Partnerships Program team is here to help explain and guide you through the grant application process. Please contact us to discuss your idea before applying: BCCommunityPartners@redcross.ca.
