Atlantic Compassion Fund
Listed below are the community organizations that benefited from a $750,000 contribution from Medavie, through the Medavie Foundation, to the Atlantic Compassion Fund. The Atlantic Compassion Fund was launched in March 2020 for the purpose of helping Atlantic Canadians in need of safe shelter, food, connection or mental health care at a difficult time. The fund provided critical support to agencies across Atlantic Canada, making it possible for them to respond to the immediate and emerging needs of their local communities. It was co-created with 11 United Ways across the region, in partnership with Atlantic Business Interiors. To date, more than $10 million has been distributed by United Ways to over 450 organizations across the Atlantic Region.
