Aug. 25. From Unifor:

The Unifor B.C. Regional Council has spearheaded a donation to the Canadian Red Cross’ B.C. wildfire relief effort.

After being moved by the tragedy of the destruction of Lytton, British Columbia, Unifor’s Regional Council has donated $5,000 to the Canadian Red Cross’ wildfire recovery fund.

Unifor matched the donation, bringing the total donation to $10,000.

“I would like to thank the B.C. Regional Council for stepping up to help British Columbians in need,” said Gavin McGarrigle, Unifor Western Regional Director.

Leanne Marsh, the B.C. Regional Council Chairperson, said there are Unifor members in many communities facing a record-breaking wild fire season: “We will be there to help the Unifor members and their fellow community members in the affected areas.”
