Today, Cameco announced more than $1.8 million in funding for numerous community organizations serving Saskatchewan including:

• More than $700,000 raised through the Cameco Employee Giving Campaign - 300 Cameco employees donated to a charity of their choice with a matching donation from the company, resulting in support for 165 charitable organizations.

• $700,000 raised through the annual Cameco Step Up for Mental Health run/walk - with nearly 7,000 participants, 100% of registration fees were matched by Cameco and used to fund grants awarded to 24 mental health projects in Saskatchewan.

Cameco is also fully funding donations to two Saskatoon-based initiatives: $250,000 to the YWCA Saskatoon to support the expansion of its women’s shelter and $150,000 to the Meewasin More Than a Trail campaign.
