The Canadian Red Cross is providing aid to those people whose lives have been disrupted by flooding that has devastated parts of western Manitoba and the province’s Interlake region.  For displaced families who have requested help the Red Cross is providing essential care items they may have had to leave behind.  Other recovery assistance may include clean-up material and the replacement of essential personal items destroyed by flood water.  Red Cross volunteers will also work with individuals and families to identify needs and available resources.

You can donate by calling toll free 1-800-418-1111 or giving on line at www.redcross.ca/mbflood and earmark the donation for Manitoba floods. Donations for the Red Cross can also be made at any Royal Bank or Scotia Bank branch earmarked either Manitoba flood or Saskatchewan flood appeal.
