In regards to the new food subsidy  program announced in November 2013 by the BC Health Minister Terry Lake , our BC Children’s Hospital Special Product Distribution Center now has a food list of covered foods on their website as well as order forms. As well as important FAQ’s you need to know regarding the program.

With the high orders of new food orders SPDC has been receiving they have noted on the website that it is not possible to respond to every email that your order was received. They ask for you to be patient with them and give your order 1-2 weeks to arrive. If it does not arrive in this time to call them immediately.

The new order form is really quiet easy. It is available online, it is an Excel document with a list of available products. You enter in your information and the quantity of each item that you want and it tallies the amount on its own. Save the document and email it to SPDC.  They are no longer taking emails as orders.

Also if there is any products you would like to see available though the program to email them your suggestions. I have asked for the country sunrise products specially the omelet and egg mix. SPDC will do their best to try and get the products in.

If you have any questions regarding the program, the new ordering excel sheets and process, please call SPDC or you can email me and I will do my best to help you.
