Shuswap Community Foundation (SCF) announced the launch of the SCF Emergency Response Fund on August 19, a dedicated fundraising campaign to support the communities affected by the Bush Creek East wildfire in North Shuswap. This initiative will provide assistance to community-based organizations during this time of crisis, helping the community recover and rebuild in the face of this disaster.

SASCU has also partnered with the foundation and dedicated $25,000 to match donations made to the Emergency Response Fund through a dedicated account. Make your donation to the SCF “Emergency Response Fund” account at any Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union (SASCU) branch to have it matched.
