⚠️ Fraud Alert

We have become aware of emails impersonating Ever Active and Shaping the Future which have included messages asking for payment details. While we have reported the emails to the authorities, we wanted to share some points to note from our organization.

1️⃣ We will never request payment details through a Google Form or any third-party application.
2️⃣ All of our communications come directly from an .org email address. No other email addresses are used by our organization.
3️⃣ If you receive an email from us that may seem off or feels illegitimate, do not reply or click any links; instead, forward it to [email protected], and we will confirm.

We're incredibly disappointed that this has happened, but it is the reality that we live in. If you encounter a fraudulent email, we highly recommend reporting it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501.
