$1 million of this funding went to the United Way Atlantic Compassion Fund to help vulnerable families and youth in Nova Scotia. Over 190 charitable organizations in communities across Nova Scotia have benefited from the Atlantic Compassion Fund. A huge thanks to the United Way Halifax for all of their work and dedication in or communities every day and especially during this crisis.
