Together Against Hunger: $90,006 Raised for Children’s Nutrition

This year, Hendrix Genetics’ employees came together to support a cause close to our hearts and our company’s mission to solve the global food challenge.

Each year, the team at Hendrix Genetics in Ontario, Canada runs a community giving campaign to support two local programs: Nutrition for Learning and The Children’s Foundation. These programs work within the communities where our employees live and work to provide open access to nutritious food for students.

Through the generosity of our employees, contract partners, and with a company match, we have raised and pledged $90,006 !

These funds will directly nourish thousands of children across our communities, ensuring they have access to healthy meals when they need them most. As food insecurity continues to rise, this achievement speaks volumes about the compassion and leadership of our employees.

The generosity of Hendrix Genetics and its employees is nothing short of extraordinary… As one child put it best: ‘Thank you for helping us have full tummies and happy hearts!’ Together, we’re making a lasting difference. On behalf of our teams and the children we serve, thank you for your steadfast partnership in the fight against childhood hunger.
