CIR Realty joined forces with The Mustard Seed and the Calgary Police Service (CPS) Victim Assistance Unit in a combined effort to raise $10,000 of much needed funding at their annual, open to the public, Masters of Disasters charity golf tournament. Like many not-for-profit organizations, The Mustard Seed’s primary source of funding is private, with the majority of donations coming from corporate and individual private donors. Only 25 per cent of its overall funding is government based.

Although the majority of the CPS Victim Assistance Unit funding comes from the Alberta Government, every penny counts when it comes to the extensive training and support needed for the Unit’s 82 civilian volunteers.
