Alberta Day of Caring: Recycle empty bottles and cans to help Jasper wildfire evacuees
CTV
It's the Alberta Day of Caring, a province-wide event to support Jasper wildfire evacuees.
Wednesday marks Alberta Day of Caring, an province-wide effort to support Jasper wildfire evacuees.
The fundraiser is a joint effort between Alberta radio stations and Alberta bottle depots.
To help, people can bring their bottles or can cans to bottle depots throughout Alberta and say "these are for Jasper."
You can also donate to the Canadian Red Cross 2024 Alberta Fires Appeal.
Both the provincial and federal government will be matching every dollar donated, which means every $1 donated will become $3 to support those affected by the wildfires.
Donations can be made through the Red Cross Canada website, or people can text the word "RADIO" to 20222 to make a $10 donation.
As of July 31, the Red Cross is giving out $750 payments to Jasper households.
