Food prices in communities north of the 60th parallel can be exorbitant and further enshrine communities in poverty. The cost of food is typically 4 to 5 times the amount we pay in Southern Ontario.
Your donation, and that of others like you, enables the St. Vincent de Paul Society in Newmarket to purchase food items for families in the Canadian Arctic community of Sanirajak (formerly Hall Beach) Nunavut. The food is shipped in sea containers to Sanirajak in summer months when shipping lanes are open. Fortunately, we do not incur any shipping related expenses, so all your donations are used to purchase food items.
Food prices in communities north of the 60th parallel can be exorbitant and further enshrine communities in poverty, which is a major concern in the north. Over the years, as part of its mission, the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul (SSVP) has developed an innovative approach of:
- reaching out and establishing contacts in remote communities north of the 60th parallel;
- identifying their needs;
- gathering non-perishables and other day-to-day household supplies and other articles required;
- arranging sea containers to deliver these gathered products.
