Programs and support

  • Warm up, charge your devices — There are reception centres across Prince Edward Island open to help Islanders during the extended power outage. Note that the centres are closing as power is restored. These centres serve as warming places, they provide electricity to charge your devices, some offer shower facilities, and in some places free hot beverages and meals are served by community volunteers.

  • Get help cleaning up your property — Islanders who need help cutting fallen trees on their property or moving large debris curbside because it is a safety hazard can request to have their name put on a list for assistance. The debris removal will start once the demand for road clearing and clean-up efforts has reduced. Call, email or fill out a web form
  • Register with Red Cross for financial assistance — The Canadian Red Cross is encouraging people impacted by hurricane Fiona to register by calling 1-800-863-6582 between 8am and 8pm ADT or online.
