We send care boxes to babies in Nunavut.

Accessing baby supplies is challenging in Nunavut. Due to the high cost of shipping, prices can be 2 to 3 times higher than in southern Canada and there is a low supply of these items in most communities. Shipped items can often take weeks to arrive. 

Our inspirational story started with a young woman who saw a need and responded. Now we are a registered charity and have sent packages to over 1,600 moms and babies in Nunavutโ€™s 25 communities.

Nunavut babies have received care boxes from One Plane Away since 2015

One Plane Away is excited to launch its annual Motherโ€™s Day Campaign! This Motherโ€™s Day, celebrate the women who supported you by making a meaningful impact for mothers in Nunavut.

Many families in remote northern communities face challenges accessing the most basic baby supplies. With your tax-deductible donation, One Plane Away delivers essential items like diapers, formula, and clothing directly to moms who need them most.
