Davidson, Sask. among three communities benefitting from BASF Canada competition

Three organizations in the Prairies are getting $25,000 each from BASF Canada.

Davidson Child Care Inc. in Davidson, Saskatchewan; the Forrest Special Projects Group in Forrest, Manitoba; and the Rosalind Recreation Association in Rosalind Alberta are the winners of the inaugural Growing Home with BASF.

They were among a group of 15 finalists who were judged on their alignment to Canadian agriculture and BASF’s values, work helping build safe and healthy communities, diversity, equity, inclusion, and work developing future leaders in agriculture.

“Each of the nominated organizations plays an essential role in supporting local farming families and we thank them for all they do,” said Andrea McConnell, manager of customer solutions at BASF. “We’re thrilled to give back to three organizations through Growing Home with BASF this year and are thankful to the growers who nominated them.”
