Telus Agriculture is donating $100,000 to help farmers affected by B.C.’s floods.

The B.C.-based communications company is giving $50,000 to the BC Agriculture Council and another $50,000 of in-kind support in veterinary services, comfort kits, and network access.

It will also give $1, up to $10,000, to the BCAC every time there is an interaction with the hashtag #HereForFarmers on social media channels.

“At Telus Agriculture, we are committed to creating better food outcomes, and that commitment includes supporting our agriculture communities when disaster strikes,” Telus Agriculture president John Raines said in a press release. “It is an honour for our team to lend our support to British Columba’s farming community as they continue to deal with the effects of the unprecedented flooding to their homes and livelihoods.

“Our team is thinking of those affected and we are committed to supporting the community as they assess, recover and rebuild.”
