Support Vulnerable Edmontonians for Summer Weather

Edmontonians experiencing homelessness or poverty are especially vulnerable during extreme summer weather.

Our Emergency Response Fund (ERF) allows us to act quickly and provide immediate support - distributing water bottles, sunscreen, hats, masks, and other essential supplies that help prevent heat-related illness and protect against smoke exposure.

Not everyone can find shelter from the heat. As temperatures rise, so does the risk of dehydration, heat stroke, sunburn, and other serious health issues. Poor air quality from wildfire smoke makes conditions even more dangerous, especially for those with limited access to shelter and clean air.

Please consider making a monetary donation to our ERF today.

By donating to our ERF, you’re helping us prepare for extreme weather before it happens. This support helps us to both prepare our sites with essential supplies and purchase exactly what we need when it is needed.

Your action allows us to respond with care, dignity, and urgency to protect our community members during extreme weather events.
