BC Wildfires

There are over 100 wildfires currently burning in British Columbia, with the fire in Summerland leading the local headlines. More than 20,000 people have been evacuated from their homes, and countless homes, businesses and farms have been destroyed. Many of us have friends and family affected by fires across the province, and we wonder what we can do to help.

If you are able, donations to help the victims can be made safely by going to:

• Canadian Red Cross 2026 British Columbia Wildfires Appeal
• Community Foundation of South Okanagan Similkameen’s SOS Wildfire Response Fund
