Please help us reach out to the residents affected by the Tsawwassen apartment fire!
Our community in Tsawwassen was saddened to hear of the news of a large fire in the Tsawwassen apartments residence “Tswawwassen Terrace” early this morning, that resulted in the death of one of the residents. For those who haven’t yet heard, the news story can be found via The South Delta Leader
When something tragic like this happens in our small community, it is shocking. I’m sure many people are asking, “What can we do?”
We at CT Squared have been in contact with those involved in the effort and have offered to help in any way that we can. We are but a small part of the equation, however. We need your help! We are setting up a fund to help the residents affected by the fire, and we would love your participation.
We have set up an account to receive funds to help the residents. We have been in contact with those responding to the event and will get more information as we go forward. Until then, we can’t be specific as to how the funds will be used, but it is likely the funds will go towards immediate needs such as:
- Furniture
- Food
- Clothing
- Other immediate needs
As things move forward needs will likely include the above as well as:
- Trauma Counselling
- Grief Counselling
- Photo recovery/restoration
- Other long term needs yet to be identified
In proposing this fund, we are not a charity and as such we cannot give tax receipts. Further, we realize that we cannot be very specific because the needs have not yet been identified. All we want to do is show our fellow residents that we are here to support them in their time of need, whatever needs may arise.
100% of funds received will go towards the aid and support of residents affected by the fire.
Please use the button below to donate, and the money will automatically be earmarked for the fund. As we move forward, we will keep you abreast of the donations received as well as the identified needs the funds are going towards.
If anyone else would like to help out, we would certainly appreciate it. If anyone has any questions or concerns about donating, please call us directly and we will be happy to answer any questions or concerns.
Thank you in advance for your support of those affected by this tragic event. Let’s band together and show everyone that we are a community that supports one another!
Please spread the word by phone, email, Facebook, Twitter, or otherwise!
If you’d like to donate by personal cheque, please make the cheque to “CT Squared” with “Fire Fund” in the memo, and mail it to:
