Give to Support Indigenous Education in 2024

This year, 2,000 students will receive a backpack filled with pens, pencils, pencil crayons, a pencil case, a math set, erasers, a ruler, glue sticks, a calculator, pads and notebooks – everything needed to start the school year.

In addition, over 3,000 books by Indigenous authors will be sent to fifteen libraries, schools, and community literacy programs, and culturally relevant books will be carefully selected for each audience by age and Indigenous language preference.

Supporting Education

Currently, True North Aid is supporting education by providing school supplies, educational opportunities, and literacy support to remote communities across the country through initiatives like “Back to School,” and Northern Reads, as well as Indigenous-led projects through the Community Initiatives Program.
