Proceeds from the Fund will help ensure Wendat Community Programs will always be here to support our two target groups, frail seniors as well as adults disabled by mental illness. Services provided by Wendat reach across Simcoe-Muskoka with the majority of services focused on the Midland-Penetanguishene/North Simcoe communities.
The Emergency Community Support Fund was initially announced on April 21, 2020 by the Prime Minister of Canada. It is part of a broad series of emergency response measures by the Government of Canada.
The Fund is a $350 million emergency funding program from the Government of Canada to help charities and non-profit organizations serving vulnerable populations disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. Starting May 19, qualified donees can apply for ECSF grants via CFC and participating community foundations across Canada.
