Donations will be collected to help those in need from evacuated communities
The United Way of Northern B.C. is working to support communities in Northern B.C. affected by wildfires.
The Urgent Response Fund will collect donations from organizations and individuals that would like to help but don’t know how – and the funds will help both now and when communities are in recovery. United Way of Northern BC will collect these funds and then work with local people and agencies to determine where the funds are most needed and then disperse the donor contributions as the situation evolves.
