Red Cross says lion's share of donations to Fort McMurray wildfires will go directly to evacuees - Calgary - CBC News

Red Cross says lion's share of donations to Fort McMurray wildfires will go directly to evacuees - Calgary - CBC News: "The Red Cross is defending the way it allocates donations to disasters and promises that those directly affected by the Fort McMurray wildfires will get the lion's share.

"The money will be applied to the event itself, the fires and the impact, and will stay in Alberta and will go to assisting residents of the Fort McMurray-Wood Buffalo area and the community to transition into recovery and then longer-term recovery," said Jenn McManus, vice-president for the Red Cross in Alberta."
