More than $530,000 raised in support of Ukraine
In less than three weeks, B.C. Liquor and B.C. Cannabis stores customers have donated more than $530,000 to support the Canadian Red Cross’s Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal.
“It is clear from the remarkable response to this campaign that what is happening in Ukraine has touched people all across the province—seeing B.C. Liquor and B.C. Cannabis store employees’ support for this campaign and the customers’ compassion and generosity shows how willing people in B.C. are to step up and support their local and international communities when it is needed most,” said Selina Robinson, Minister of Finance.
