• "Virtual Paint Night" providing attendees with supplies and snacks (dropped to their doorsteps prior to the
event), allowing for a guided painting class to encourage a sense of connection and lessen the feeling of
withdrawal during COVID-19.
• "Flower Pots for Seniors" over 30 volunteers worked together to assemble and paint flower boxes and bird
feeders for seniors at three different long-term care facilities.
• Initiatives to support children with access to art supplies.
• "Youth Lunch Program" 247 items to support activities for school-age children purchased to help
approximately 100 families in Iqaluit to keep kids busy at home during COVID-19.

We used the grant to purchase activities and games for children
in our community. Most of us have been stuck at home, some with little
activities to keep them occupied and engaged. This should help them
stay healthy, active and happy!
