里贾纳市已收到CAD117000,用于支持社区机构,这些机构一直在帮助里贾纳最脆弱的居民度过COVID-19大流行。
里贾纳是73个接受CMA基金会(CMAF)1000万美元捐款的城市之一,该基金会与加拿大城市联合会(FCM)合作,以满足加拿大各地无家可归、粮食无保障和精神健康挑战的人的需要。
“COVID-19弱势群体社区响应基金将通过支持地方和社区层面的行动,帮助我们的城市和加拿大其他地区帮助我们最脆弱的群体。”市长迈克尔·福基尔说, “我要感谢CMAF的捐赠,我感谢并赞扬里贾纳所有社区服务提供商、一线工作者和志愿者在过去的一年里,在帮助我们最脆弱的邻居方面给予的高度关怀、伙伴关系和复原力。”
这些资金将作为补助金发放给社区组织,协助为工作人员和弱势群体购买专业清洁消毒产品、个人卫生用品和个人防护用品。这将有助于确保前线、非营利机构拥有继续为里贾纳居民提供安全服务所需的工具和设备,同时确保获得这些服务的人的安全。
里贾纳市将与我们的合作伙伴合作,确保所有符合条件的组织都有机会申请资金,以支持其COVID-19响应。

City Receives Funding to Support Vulnerable Populations
September 21, 2020
The City of Regina has received $117,000 to support community agencies that have been assisting Regina’s most vulnerable residents through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Regina is one of 73 municipalities to receive funding as part of a $10 million donation from the CMA Foundation (CMAF), in collaboration with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM), to address the needs of those across Canada experiencing homelessness, food insecurity and mental health challenges.
“The COVID-19 Community Response Fund for Vulnerable Populations will help our city and others across Canada to assist our most vulnerable by supporting local and community-level action,” Mayor Michael Fougere said. “I want to thank the CMAF for this donation, and I thank and commend all of the community service providers, front-line workers and volunteers throughout Regina for their high level of care, partnership, and resilience in assisting our most vulnerable neighbours throughout this past year.”
The funds will be distributed as grants to community organizations to assist with the purchase of specialized cleaning and sanitizing products, personal hygiene products and personal protective equipment for staff and vulnerable individuals. This will help ensure front-line, non-profit agencies will have the tools and equipment they require to continue serving Regina residents safely while also ensuring the safety and security of those that access these services.
The City of Regina will work collaboratively with our partners to ensure that all eligible organizations have an opportunity to apply for funds to support their COVID-19 responses.
