I hope others will want to help families from Ft Simpson and Jean Marie River in the Northwest Territories, Canada.  Over the weekend of May 9th, they were flooded out.  Over 700 people are on evacuating from Ft Simpson.  There is no power in the community.  Homes have been inundated with water.   In Jean Marie River, the home of about 100 people of the Jean Marie First Nation, everyone was evacuated.  Most homes have been severely damaged, some beyond repair.  Both communities are facing significant personal and community losses.  They need help to rebuild. Please make a donation.

My name is Patrick Scott.  I lived in Ft Simpson in 1989 during the last flood.  My house had 3 feet of water in it.  I remember the frustration and stress too clearly.  I sat in the upper level of my house listening to the water running through it.  It leaves you feeling helpless and overpowered.  Please help, it will make a huge difference in their recovery.  The road ahead will not be easy and its made even more difficult with the presence of Covid.  Your kindness will go a long way.  I look forward to their celebrations was they rebuild their communities through the kindness of neighbours
