ACTORS' FUND OF CANADA (AFC)

The AFC is the lifeline for Canada’s entertainment industry. This charitable organization, in existence since 1950, disburses approximately $500,000 in individual assistance annually. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the organization has distributed $1.4M in assistance to Canadian workers in need, and during the strikes in the United States in 2023, $2.9M. It is thanks to the support of the AFC and its donors that those who request it can obtain the financial respite they need to get through difficult times.
