Alberta Wildfire Relief
By now we are all aware of the tremendous disaster in the area of Fort McMurray, Alberta. The destruction and evacuation have affected so many Albertans and Canadians I imagine most of us must know of a relative, colleague, fellow union member or friend directly touched in some way by these events.
The Executive Board has decided to help our members show their support by matching all member donations made until May 31, to any organization handling the relief efforts. Simply provide your donation information using the link below and IBEW Local 2228 will match every dollar up to $25000 in the form of a donation to the Canadian Red Cross, Alberta Fires Appeal.
On behalf of the Executive Board, Table Officers, Staff and members of IBEW Local 2228 I would like to express our heartfelt best wishes to all those affected by these unprecedented events and also deep appreciation to the many involved in battling the wildfires and aiding in relief efforts all over Alberta.
IBEW Canada has also created a link to the Canadian Red Cross to make donations toward the Alberta Fire Appeal. If you wish to make a donation in this manner please use the link below.
