"Kidz On The Land" is an Art for Aid support program.
This week, we are getting ready to send 21 pairs of snowshoes to Lac Brochet, Manitoba, to support their land-based learning program.
These snowshoes and pathway marker flags will greatly enhance the programs directive and efforts to connect students with their culture through land-based programming.
Your support is essential for programs like this one. To help, please donate to Art for Aid under the program tab through @soaring_circle

John George Martin Memorial School is a small First Nations Community School that educates approximately 175 students. The schools is less than 3 years old and in need of art materials for their classrooms. We were very happy to help when the call came in.
We knew this small shipment would be a costly venture. Winnumin Lake is 360 km north east of Sioux Look Out and pretty remote.
You've supported Art for Aid since 2013. We're fortunate that we have the means to be able to yes to these small fly-in communities. This shipment consisted of only 8 boxes; the costs never cease to surprise me. However, the joy that will come from accessing a variety of art supplies is priceless to us.
Please consider supporting our work so we can keep supporting access to art for youth in remote Canada.
