Please be aware that Alberta Recovers operates as a matching service and does not handle or manage donations until a match is confirmed. Donations are only processed and allocated once we have successfully matched them with specific requests from individuals and families in need. This approach ensures that all contributions are directed to appropriate and verified needs, maintaining the efficiency and integrity of our disaster recovery efforts.
