Partnering with Telus Health My Care, The Do More Agricultural Foundation has extended its offer to provide no-cost mental health counselling for B.C. farmers, growers, ranchers and their families affected by the floods in southern B.C. last autumn.

According to Do More spokesperson Himadry Singh, the non-profit害羞草研究所檚 partnership with Telus enabled the extension of this program until the end of March.
