Canadians (NFIC) we represent a strong voice for the 1.4 million Canadian citizens who have   full or artial Italian heritage or Italians who have emigrated to and reside in Canada.

As such we are mustering the support of all of Canada to unite its efforts in assisting the Italian

authorities that need to bring help to those hardest  hit with this tragedy in the four core regions  (Lazio, Umbria, Marche & Abruzzo) affected by the earthquake. A National initiative is being put in place to ensure that all communities throughout Canada can donate money that will be funneled directly to those in need within these regions. We will be announcing shortly the details of this initiative as for now local authorities are still focusing the rescue efforts to save more lives.
