Protein for People is a non-profit society started in 2006 by unions and the United Way who saw an opportunity to make a real difference. Protein for People is currently working with BC’s salmon canneries to obtain a great source of protein.
BC’s unions and union members have taken a leadership role through cash donations and by connecting local food producers with BC’s food banks. Because of this leadership, tens of thousands of cans of BC salmon help to feed vulnerable people.
