This weekend, I packed another 90 pounds worth of your stuff and dropped them off. By now, they should be winging their way to Iqaluit. Just before Christmas, I did a drop off with a partner who carried items to Iqaluit to be shipped onwards. She sent me a note telling me that the baby things went to the new moms, the adult hats went to shelters, and she sent the remaining items to Arviat, and will send a few more to Cambridge Bay.
The photos below are of single items from the boxes and bags that you shipped. Have I mentioned that you're all great? I have reverted to taking photos of just one or two things from each box (in the interest of time!) but rest assured that all are opened, admired and appreciated.
