Agnico Eagle’s $5M breakfast-program renewal covers 22 schools in Kivalliq and Kitikmeot
Agnico Eagle says it has renewed a five-year, $5-million partnership with Breakfast Club of Canada to support daily nutritious breakfast programs for more than 5,000 students in 22 schools in the Kivalliq and Kitikmeot regions. The company’s public record confirms the amount, term, regions, school count and student estimate. It is private corporate funding, not a new Government of Nunavut program or a public funding award. ᓇᑭᓐᖔᖅᓯᒪᓂᖏᑦ↗

The renewal provides a stated five-year funding commitment for school breakfast service in two Nunavut regions.
