Making a Difference

The fifth year of the Cameco Creative Kids Northern Cultural Fund (CCKNCF) started on January 28th, with a new round of funding available to Northern Saskatchewan communities looking to deliver cultural programming for children and youth ages 4 to 19. 

In June, 2017 the Lac La Ronge Indian Band (LLRIB) and Cameco announced the signing of a collaboration agreement to formalize their long-standing relationship.

Cameco has long partnered with the communities in the Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan. Home to the highest-grade uranium deposits known on the planet, all of Cameco’s Saskatchewan mining operations are located within this unique area. Many of our operations’ employees and contractors also call this region home.

The Six Rivers Fund, a legacy trust developed and managed by northern community leaders with funding from Cameco and Orano, continues to deliver benefits across Saskatchewan’s northern administration district.

The northern Village of Pinehouse, located in the boreal forest on the western shore of Pinehouse Lake, is transforming its community into a thriving, self-sustaining example of the power of partnerships.
