Grounded in the values of the People served, we honour the voice of Indigenous communities and organizations.

Wildfire Relief Bundle

First Nations communities across Canada are facing devastating wildfires that are forcing families from their homes, threatening traditional territories, and disrupting connections to land, culture and community. In response, the Indigenous Peoples Resilience Fund is providing emergency funding to First Nations affected by wildfires and Indigenous-led organizations already offering frontline support to evacuated First Nation members.

You may be eligible to apply if you are:
  • A First Nation directly affected by a wildfire emergency; or

  • An Indigenous-led and Indigenous-serving organization actively supporting evacuated First Nation members in an urban centre.

“Where common memory is lacking, where people do not share in the same past, there can be no real community. Where community is to be formed, common memory must be created.”
