Emergency Response

Your gift supports the Emergency Relief work of PWRDF. Every year we respond to emergencies in Canada and around the world. Climate change causes droughts and natural disasters like flooding, hurricanes, and typhoons that destroy access to food and shelter. Often these occur in areas that affect the world’s most vulnerable populations. Through our partnerships, we can respond quickly and help those in urgent need. In many cases, funds are needed months after the immediate crises as families need to rebuild their lives and livelihood.

Indigenous Pandemic Response

Tataskweyak Cree Nation in Northern Manitoba has declared a state of emergency due to the rapidly spreading Omicron variant. In consultation with the diocese of Mishamikoweesh, the Indigenous Peoples Alliance of Manitoba (North Region) and others, PWRDF is allocating funds to purchase and distribute face masks, test kits, hygiene and cleaning supplies. PWRDF is now accepting donations toward this response. While temperatures plunge to 30 and 40 degrees below zero, please keep this community in your prayers as they try to self-isolate and return to good health.

Sustainable partnerships for health, food security and human rights
