The McCain Foundation
Mission
The McCain Foundation has a deep appreciation for the communities that are home to McCain Foods production facilities in Canada — including Florenceville-Bristol (NB), Grand Falls (NB), Portage la Prairie (MB), Carberry (MB), Coaldale (AB), and the Atlantic provinces.
The Foundation is focused on addressing challenges in these regions by supporting projects, both large and small, in the areas of arts and culture, community services, education, environment, and health and welfare.
Values
The McCain Foundation values community, opportunity, empowerment, and trust.
History
McCain Foods and the McCain family have a long history of charitable giving and to extend and enhance their impact, The McCain Foundation was established in 1993. From the beginning, the Foundation’s goal was to improve the lives of those in rural communities where McCain Foods Limited employees live and work.
While McCain Foods Limited has grown since then, The McCain Foundation maintains its focus on the Atlantic Provinces, Alberta, and Manitoba.
The McCain Foundation Board includes one member from each of the four founding families of McCain Foods along with a company representative.
