The Grande Prairie Regional Emergency Partnership was activated in response to the ongoing wildfire evacuation of Jasper residents earlier this week, and GPREP has highlighted a few resources evacuees can access during this time.
So far, 121 evacuees are registered in Grande Prairie. Registered evacuees can now access free transit and admission to the Eastlink Centre and Aquatera Outdoor Pool, provided they are wearing the wristband they were issued at the reception centre.
At this time, physical donations are not being accepted; however, anyone wishing to offer support to those impacted can email their offers to [email protected]. Monetary donations can be made to the Northwestern Alberta Foundation to support those impacted through the Northwestern Alberta Emergency Recovery Fund.
