CanadaHelps.org is compiling a list of charities supporting flight PS752 victims and honouring the memory of the lives tragically lost. To date, three charities are listed on the page:
-
The Canada Strong Campaign, launched by Mohamad Fakih, president of Paramount Fine Foods and founder of the Fakih Foundation, to support the families of the 57 victims from across Canada. With oversight from Dentons Canada LLP, all donations will flow through Toronto Foundation and be granted to those affected. The campaign aims to raise $1.5 million.
-
In West Vancouver, B.C., the Canadian Iranian Foundation is also raising funds for families of those killed in the flight PS752 crash. This fundraiser has a goal of $100,000.
-
The University of Toronto has also established The Iranian Student Memorial Scholarship Fund to provide scholarships to international students from Iran or students from any background studying Iranian studies at U of T.
