Glebe Avenue Fire: How You Can Help
The Glebe Community Association (GCA), Glebe Business Improvement Area (BIA)
and the Glebe Community Centre (GCC) are working together to help the victims of the three-alarm fire
on January 18th that burned down a multi-unit apartment building at 114 Glebe Avenue.
The GCA has set up a special account at the Royal Bank at Bank Street and First Avenue.
Donations can be made at any RBC branch or online if you have an RBC account.
The account number is 00116-1012954. Cheques are also accepted and should be made out to the
Glebe Community Association with the special account number written in the memo portion of the cheque.
The GCA board is working with the Red Cross and the residents affected to determine how to
distribute the money.
