TheDo.ca: Bringing together people and resources to help the vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In response to the Covid-19 Pandemic, the United Way of Bruce Grey is launching two fundraising initiatives and a full volunteer engagement program to support the community.
Pandemic Food Bank Fund – this fund will support food banks as they respond to an unprecedented increase in requests for food.
Pandemic Community Response Fund – this fund will support other local agencies who are supporting people in our community impacted by the Covid 19 Pandemic.
All funds will stay in Bruce Grey and go directly to the organizations that require more support during this time. The United Way is working directly with community leaders and agencies to ensure we are providing help where needed.
Donations can be made through www.DonateToday.ca or emailed to manager@unitedwaybg.com, called into 519-376-1560 or mailed to
380 9th street East Owen Sound N4K 1P1.
Please no drop off donations at this time.
All donations are tax deductible.
To connect people in need with resources we have launched The Do at www.TheDo.ca
This is a mobile friendly simple site for people who want to volunteer, and for people who are not connected to an agency to get supports.
People sign up, then we’ll start connecting those with needs with those that are ready to help. The safety of our community will be a primary underpinning of this resource. We are developing best practices around emergency food distribution etc.
For more information, please give us a call at 519-376-1560 or email manager@unitedwaybg.com
