BLOG: Last distributions of Emergency Vouchers for Elders in the Qikiqtani Region

 In Blog, COVID Post, COVID19

The Emergency Vouchers for Elders project provides short-term financial support during the COVID-10 pandemic to Qikiqtani Inuit Elders aged 60 years and older.

Since April 14th, QIA has worked with Arctic Co-ops Limited to provide eligible Elders with $250 gift cards that can be used at any Arctic Co-op store. In Clyde River, we worked with the Ilisaqsivik Society to provide food hampers under this program.

This is a reminder to Elders that your last gift card will be available for pick up starting on June 23.

Gift cards can be collected at your community co-op until June 30th.

  • In Iqaluit, gift cards can be picked up at Arctic Ventures
  • In Clyde River, the last two food hampers will be delivered on July 10 and July 24.

The gift cards can be used to buy groceries and supplies at Co-op stores. There are no restrictions on what you can buy with your card and the gift cards do not expire.
