On March 4, 2022 House of Wolf became an Arctic Inspiration Prize Laureate!
We are immensely grateful and extremely proud to have been awarded $500,000 to launch the Indigenous Community Safety Partnership Program. Together with many partners we will support the restoration of safety in our communities, and support each other in building resilience to future crises and emergencies.
We would like to thank the Arctic Inspiration Prize Selection Committee, the Rideau Hall Foundation, and so many incredible Northerners who contribute to the AIP every year, and give life to so many phenomenal projects. House of Wolf would like to recognize the support of our many partners, mentors and champions.
