The Alaska Miner - Winter 2024

Fort Knox Mine offers awareness for men's health and safety Kinross Alaska took a creative approach to health and safety recently at the Fort Knox Mine. To increase team awareness of men’s health issues and opportunities, the mine created a week full of activities themed Movember. And by all accounts it was a roaring success! “We gave one of our haul trucks a dapper new look with a mustache that turned heads and sparked conversations about men’s health,” said Brenna Schaake, External Affairs Supervisor. “But it wasn’t just about the truck makeover. The mine team set up an educational outreach hot cocoa bar, where we shared vital information about men’s health, held a mustache-growing competition and hosted a donation drive for men at the Fairbanks Rescue Mission. “Knowledge is power, and we believe in raising awareness about the importance of taking care of our well-being. A huge shoutout to everyone who participated, contributed, and engaged in the Movember festivities. Together, we’re making strides towards a healthier, happier future for all!” Kinross Alaska was recently honored as Education Advocate of the Year by the Greater Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce for innovation programs like this throughout the year. www.AlaskaMiners.org 11 BACKUP POWER FOR ANY NEED.
