IBAM Canada Red Cross Matching Campaign

IBAM invites all broker members to participate in a new initiative to help the wildfire evacuees across Manitoba in these trying times. From June 4-June 20, 2025, every dollar donated by one of IBAM’s member brokerages to the Canadian Red Cross will be matched by IBAM*.

In addition to IBAM’s matching donation, the Government of Canada and Government of Manitoba have also agreed to match all Red Cross donations to the Manitoba Wildfires, meaning or every $1 donated, $4 will go to supporting families and individuals.

How it works:

If you make (or have made) a donation to Red Cross, send the official donation receipt to info@ibam.mb.ca. IBAM will calculate the total received and donate that amount to Red Cross up to a total maximum of $20,000.

Please note: your donation receipt information will not be shared. We may collect brokerage information to include in a general post about the campaign. If you have any questions, please email the IBAM office.
