The Calgary Foundation Flood Rebuilding Fund 
 
A Fund to support long-term community recovery efforts in Calgary and area.

Following the devastating Southern Alberta Floods of June 2013, The Calgary Foundation established the Flood Rebuilding Fund, which supports qualified donees in long-term rebuilding and recovery efforts.

The Fund does NOT recover administrative costs or credit card transaction fees, so 100% of donations are directed toward recovery work and the next waves of need in Calgary and area - which includes the hardest hit areas of High River, Canmore, and surrounding First Nation reserves.

All donations will support charities working to rebuild lives and revitalize communities.

As a community convener and grantmaker for over 55 years, The Calgary Foundation has strong knowledge of the charitable organizations doing great work to benefit the community. The Fund will support a wide-range of needs across the charitable sector, long after the flood waters have receded.

Basic human service needs, like shelter and food programs, will receive attention but The Calgary Foundation is also aware of need to focus on rebuilding neighbourhoods and public spaces, addressing mental health concerns and bridging the gap in funding shortfalls. These are just some of the ways the Flood Rebuilding Fund can support the overwhelming needs facing our communities.
