How to help Fort McMurray fire evacuees
As Canada watches fire burn the city of Fort McMurray, people across the country are reaching out to help.
Around 80,000 people were forced to flee their homes Tuesday evening as flames took over the Alberta city.
The Canadian Red Cross sprang into action immediately, asking people to donate online through an emergency Alberta Fires Appeal.
“We know everybody is really eager to get involved, to pitch-in in some way, shape or form,” said Amanda Purcell with the Canadian Red Cross Wednesday.
