Support Manitobans Impacted by Wildfires

Thousands of Manitobans continue to be impacted by the wildfires across our province. While the state of emergency in the province has been lifted and many Manitobans have been able to return home, there are still some communities that are displaced and many that are starting their work to assess the damage and rebuild.

The Winnipeg Foundation is committed to supporting the immediate needs of communities and organizations, the well-being of evacuees and relief workers, and long-term recovery.

The Winnipeg Foundation has established the 2025 Manitoba Wildfire Response Fund with an initial commitment of $300,000.

The fund has supported the following organizations:

  • Red Cross - $100,000
  • Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak (MKO) - $50,000
  • Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata Centre Inc. (Children and youth programming) - $50,000
  • Ka Ni Kanichihk Inc. (Recreational activities for families & outreach and care for Elders) - $50,000

Let's keep supporting Manitobans in need! Your support will allow us to quickly direct funds to organizations who need it most to help Manitobans impacted by the fires.
