Donation and ongoing support

Molycop Canada has provided a $7000 donation to the Starfish Program, but its commitment extends beyond financial support. Several times during the school year, Molycop employees in Kamloops volunteer to help pack and deliver 250 backpacks filled with nutritious, easy-to-prepare food to students in 30 schools across School District 73.

These backpacks are distributed every Friday morning, providing essential meals to children who may need access to adequate food over the weekend.
