About This Payment
Helping Calgarians Stay Housed
This cheque was issued by Rise Calgary, a local charity that helps people through moments of financial crisis — covering essentials like rent, deposits, and utilities so they can stay in their homes.
Part of how Calgarians stay housed
Rise Calgary is a registered charity that has supported Calgarians through financial hardship for over 20 years. When a rent shortfall or an unexpected bill puts a tenancy at risk, we step in — with emergency funds, coaching, and connection to longer-term support — so people can stay housed and stable. Stable tenancies are good for everyone: renters keep their homes, housing providers keep reliable tenants, and our city stays stronger. Payments like this one are part of that work.
