Whether it’s an ice storm, wildfire, flood, or other emergency, the need for rapid and compassionate support continues to grow. The new Emergency Response and Recovery Fund addresses urgent needs like food, shelter and medical supplies—while also supporting long-term recovery, all in collaboration with frontline organizations.

In the aftermath of the recent ice storm that swept through the region, the Community Foundation of Kawartha Lakes (CFKL), Community Care City of Kawartha Lakes, and Kawartha Lakes Food Source are working closely together to assess community needs and provide essential support to residents during  recovery.
