COMING TOGETHER AT A TIME WHEN WE NEED EACH OTHER THE MOST.
Donlin Gold coordinated the delivery of food and supplies – including partnering with a local farmer to ship fresh vegetables to 56 Yukon and coastal communities after the regional airline went into bankruptcy and left communities without regular air carrier service.
SUSTAINABILITY SUMMARY 33
Thousands of pounds of food from the Donlin Gold project site were delivered to shelters and to every home in eight Middle Kuskokwim villages when the project site temporarily closed due to the local travel ban.
