Online auction overflows with support for flood victims
GREGG CHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca
Niveaux d’eau élevés Les deux principales autorités de conservation de l’est de l’Ontario rapportent que les niveaux d’eau, dans les rivières et les cours d’eau des régions de la Ville d’Ottawa, Prescott-Russell et Stormont-Dundas et Glengarry, restent élevés en raison des quantités de pluies supérieures à la moyenne cette année, combinées à la fonte annuelle de la neige. Mais les auto- rités ne s’attendent pas à des inondations comparables à celles du printemps qui ont entraîné des conditions d’état d’urgence pour plusieurs communautés riveraines. Les auto- rités conseillent aux propriétaires fonciers et aux municipalités de surveiller les conditions d’eau dans toutes les zones susceptibles d’être inondées dans des conditions normales. Les résidents sont également invités à faire parti- culièrement attention aux rives des rivières où l’eau coule rapidement. – Gregg Chamberlain Leslie Scott always knew people in Clar- ence-Rockland had big hearts. She just didn’t know how big until she decided to organize an online auction to raise a bit of money to help people in town hit hard, when the Ottawa River flooded this past spring. Scott figured shemight manage to gather together a couple dozen items to auction off and maybe raise a couple hundred dol- lars so that she could contribute to the TD Canada Trust’s Rockland flood relief trust fund. Instead, she experienced a flood of goodwill from both local businesses and individuals who donated gift certificates and various items and from the horde of people waiting for the cyber signal when the online auction was on. “I was just thinking ‘I’ll do a little auction and raise a few hundred dollars,’” Scott re- called. “I had people calling to donate things right up to the day of the auction.” By theMay long weekend, Scott had a list of more than 100 items to go on the cyber auction block. By the end of the auction and collection of all final sales, she had $12,882 to deposit in the Flood Relief trust fund. “They (trust fund officials) were extremely grateful,” she said, smiling. Scott was on maternity leave from her regular job as a manager and event fun- draising expert for a non-profit agency in Ottawa. She’d done a short stint of sand- bagging with other local volunteers during Rockland’s flood relief efforts. But with a newborn daughter demanding her atten- tion, she wondered if there was a way she could use her organizational skills to help flood victims. This resulted in her online auction proj- ect, which also showed her how generous and giving Clarence-Rockland’s residents and business community are. She noted that some of the people who donated items or gift cards for the auction were victims of the flood themselves. “These were people who were hurting, and they just wanted to help,” Scott said. “You really see the way that this community is knitted together.”
Leslie Scott et sa petite fille Emily ont visité la succursale de TD / Canada Trust à Rockland, pour déposer plus de 12 000 $ dans le fonds local d’aide aux victimes des inondations. L’argent a été récolté grâce à une vente aux enchères en ligne, mise en place par Leslie Scott avec l’aide des entreprises locales et des résidents. -photo fournie
