The Municipality of Kincardine has continued to work with the Canadian Red Cross, Bruce County, Victim Services Bruce Grey, emergency responders and community partners to support residents displaced by the fire at Huron Terrace on Oct. 9.
“In a matter of hours, emergency responders, community organizations, businesses and volunteers came together to help our neighbours during a difficult time,” says CAO Alan Smith. “We are grateful for the generosity and teamwork that has made it possible to provide residents with safe accommodations and essential supports.”
Currently, families have been relocated to area hotels, with transportation and food assistance provided. Efforts have also been made to reunite residents with their pets.
For those who would like to support the families, financial donations can be made through the Victim Services Bruce Grey Compassion in Action Fund. The Clothes Hamper, located at 732 Queen St. in Kincardine, is accepting donations of clean, gently used clothing between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 10.
