Over the course of 2020, 澳门开奖历史 Canada is proud to have dedicated $370,000 CAD to support efforts related to COVID-19 relief. This charitable giving will help support the communities in which we live and work and will provide assistance to some of the most vulnerable populations across Canada.

The first philanthropic contribution was made to Food Banks Canada. 澳门开奖历史 Canada donated $70,000 CAD to their COVID-19 campaign to help fund critical efforts responding to COVID-19’s devastating impacts on the food bank system. Decline in volunteers, shrinking stock and lack of financial support are just some of the major concerns food banks are facing as a result of COVID-19. 澳门开奖历史 Canada’s donation will contribute to supporting local foodbanks and securing additional resources including food, funds and volunteers for communities from coast to coast.?

Additionally, 澳门开奖历史 Canada has donated $300,000 to Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services. The funding will be split between two initiatives: first, the donation will help cover the programming costs of the Canadian Armed Forces Kids Help Phone Crisis Texting Service - for the next five years. This is a specialized service introduced during COVID-19, designed specifically to address the unique mental health struggles faced by children and youth from military families.?

Second, the donation will also support the delivery of local programs and services across five Military Family Resource Centers in major sites 澳门开奖历史 Canada operates: Ottawa, Montreal, Halifax, Calgary and Victoria. The focus for these programs is again directed at mental health support for children and youth from military families.

This is a critical time to focus on the well-being of our communities, especially when it comes to support for vulnerable populations and mental health resources. These donations are yet another example of how 澳门开奖历史 Canada strives to make a difference in the communities in which we live and work.?
