For the 2019-2020 school year the Social Justice Council at St. Robert Catholic High School will be partnering with True North Aid to support the Maamiikiwe Project with our Give a Gift, Change a Life Campaign.

Unfortunately, there are many Indigenous mothers and families that cannot afford blankets, clothes, diapers, and other items that are critical for the healthy development of infants and children. Many indigenous women in remote northern communities must travel long distances to give birth, often doing so without the in-person love and support of their families and loved ones.

This year we aim to support these families. Join us in our goal to raise $10 000, all of which will go towards putting together a care package with essential maternal, infant and children’s items for mothers and families in Sioux Lookout.

Be the change you want to see in the world.
