Canadian Anglicans are offering support to the earthquake response via Anglicans in Canada International (ACT) through the Primate's World Relief and Development Fund (PWRDF). PWRDF has sent an initial grant of $15,000 for ACT's Rapid Response Program, an ecumenical effort that is made up of churches and humanitarian organizations. ACT members - Christian Aid, Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe, Lutheran World Federation, and Interchurch Organisation for Development Corporation - are already on the ground providing relief in Haiti, and being funded by PWRDF and other member churches thanks to the generous donations from Anglicans in Canada. Additional donations to Haiti relief will increase PWRDF's grant to ACT International. Donations made by individual Canadians over the period of January 12 - February 12, 2010, will be matched by the Government of Canada through the CIDA-managed Haiti Earthquake Relief fund. We will access these funds in cooperation with other Canadian churches as we have in the past. Please watch for updates on PWRDF's response to the Haiti earthquake at http://www.pwrdf.org/. Donations can be made in the following ways: On-Line Go to http://www.canadahelps.org and type in PWDRF, which will take you to the donation page where you can designate "Haiti earthquake." By Phone For credit card donations contact Jennifer Brown, 1-866-308-7973 or directly at 416-924-9192, ext: 320 By Mail Please make cheques payable to "PWRDF", mark them for "Haiti earthquake", and send them to: The Primate's World Relief and Development Fund The Anglican Church of Canada 80 Hayden Street Toronto, Ontario M4Y 3G2 |
