Primate's World Relief and Development Fund (PWRDF)

The Primate's World Relief and Development Fund is the Canadian Anglican agency for development, relief, refugees, and justice. 

PWRDF is active in approximately 30 countries, with partners drawn from Anglican churches, ecumenical organizations, and community-based groups. PWRDF supports people-centred development that improves the quality of daily life for vulnerable populations, promotes self-reliance, and addresses root causes of poverty and injustice.

Our work is bound together in three strategic themes:

• Weaving a Culture of Peace with Justice
• Building a Moral Economy and
• Accompanying Communities in Crisis.

PWRDF strives to be a part of the outreach ministry of every Canadian Anglican parish and an expression for all Anglicans of their baptismal covenant to strive for justice and peace and to respect the dignity of every human being.

The national PWRDF has additional materials and information available here 

We serve as an educational resource to all parishes, and assist parish representatives in a variety of tasks. Need help? Call or write to us through the Programme Office, or email us at pwrdf@montreal.anglican.ca
