2024 Community Wildfire Prevention Grants
As part of our Wawanesa Climate Champions commitment to help build more climate resilient communities, we are proud to partner with FireSmart Canada and the Institute for Catastrophic Loss Reduction (ICLR) to offer our Community Wildfire Prevention Grants.
The grants help communities across Canada reduce their risk of loss from wildfire through prevention activities.
Supporting community wildfire prevention is one of the ways we help build a safer, more sustainable future for our communities.
