BURLINGTON, ON
A new COVID-19 resource webpage is available for Burlington residents and non-profit organizations. The new page, found at Burlington.ca/COVID19Resources, features many great links to help support individuals and non-profit organizations during this pandemic.
The city created the portal – idea came out of the Mayor’s Task Force
Residents can find links for organizations who are looking for volunteers and donations as well as organizations offering support to individuals through the COVID-19 emergency.
Links to supports for individuals includes mental health, food, clothing, housing and more.
‘This webpage is fantastic’ said the Mayor.
Non-profit organizations can add or update their contact information and description through an online form also found on Burlington.ca/COVID19Resources.
There is only one thing that matters to Burlington and every other community in the province. Stay at home.
“This webpage is fantastic” said the Mayor, “ as it acts as a one-stop shop for resources. We hope by having a single portal, this will be of tremendous value to our residents and non-profit organizations. I want to thank City staff for putting this together, and our members of the Burlington COVID-19 Task Force – this was their idea and their first take-away item that’s now being delivered. This is collaboration in action and the true spirit of the Task Force, our City and our community.”
The flattening of the curve below is all that matters. All it takes to flatten it is for people to adhere to that six foot rule and stay at home as much as they can and wash your hands frequently. The virus that is spreading amongst us is something that is being transmitted person to person.
The data for the Region of Halton is very clear – the curve is still climbing.
