Sponsor WildFire-Ready
Back the wildfire app Western Canada relies on. Sponsorship funds the work and earns public recognition — it never buys influence over the map, paid features, or white-labelling.
WildFire-Ready is a free, bilingual wildfire app for Western Canada — a companion to 911 and official emergency services, not a replacement. It runs entirely on sponsorships, supporter contributions, and donations. Sponsoring it means funding a public-safety tool that thousands of people open during fire season, and being named for it.
What sponsorship doesn't buy: influence over the map, paid features, white-labelling, or ads on the safety screens. Those limits are deliberate — they're what lets residents, First Nations, and provincial agencies trust what they see. Sponsors are recognized as supporters — logo on the app's loading screen, the homepage, and the Supporters page — never as advertisers.
Fund WildFire-Ready
Open sponsor slots — your company here.
WildFire-Ready is independent, free public-safety infrastructure for Western Canada, operated on sponsorships, support, and donations. There are no ads on the safety screens and sponsors never influence the map — but engineering, satellite ingestion, and map tiles cost real money. Sponsors keep it free for everyone, and get their logo on the app's loading screen, the homepage, and the Supporters page.

Who we want to hear from
Insurance carriers
Wildfire-exposed property insurers operating in British Columbia and Alberta.
FireSmart community programs
Local FireSmart coordinators, regional FireSmart committees, and FireSmart Canada.
Provincial emergency management

What partnership can look like
Funding
Restricted or unrestricted grants. Use of funds includes engineering and maintenance, Indigenous-language localization beyond English and French, and hardware (tablets, chargers, kiosk displays) for evacuation reception centres.
Data partnership
Private-sector fire perimeter data, AI smoke detection feeds, and predictive wildfire spread models. We integrate the data, attribute the source clearly in the app, and link out to the provider. We do not resell or rebrand partner data.
Distribution
Employer rollouts to staff in wildfire-exposed regions, community group recommendations, and First Nations band office distribution. We can provide download links, posters, and bilingual one-pagers for local use.
What we do not accept
These limits protect the credibility of the app. They are not negotiable.
- No ads on the map, the fire data, or the alerts — the safety experience stays clean.
- No paid prioritization of fires, regions, or alerts.
- No influence over what the app shows or which sources it uses.
- No white-labelling of the app for a sponsor brand.
- No affiliate links or referral kickbacks.
Where the project stands
WildFire-Ready is live on iOS, Android, and the web as of May 2026. We do not yet publish detailed user counts or session metrics publicly, and we will not invent them. What we can state as fact is the launch posture:
- Free forever. No paywalls, no in-app purchases, no ads on the safety experience.
- Bilingual English and Canadian French from day one.
- Official sources only: BC Wildfire Service, Alberta Wildfire, the Canadian Wildland Fire Information System (CWFIS / NRCan), NASA FIRMS, Environment and Climate Change Canada, DriveBC, 511 Alberta.
- All of Western Canada. Expansion beyond it follows as funding allows.
