Makeway Foundation

This Indigenous History Month, we’re celebrating the inspiring work of our Indigenous partners who are revitalizing culture and sparking pride and healing in their communities. First up is Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq / Kitikmeot Heritage Society which means “learning through culture” in Inuinnaqtun, the language of the Inuinnait—a distinct group of Inuit in the central Canadian Arctic. Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq is restoring intergenerational language and cultural transmission through programs and resources grounded in Inuinnait ways of being.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve watched with heavy hearts as wildfires continue to spread across large parts of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. States of emergency have been declared, and thousands of people are being impacted across many communities. To everyone affected, especially community partners in the northern regions who are facing displacement, loss, or uncertainty: we are holding you in our thoughts and sending deep care and strength.
