Kangiqsujuaq teacher Jimmy Uqittuq, left, enjoys a cup of freshly-squeezed lemonade with Baker Lake “throatboxer” Nelson Tagoona, who performed in the Nunavik community last month. Pre-college students at Kangiqsujuaq’s Arsaniq school prepared and sold the lemonade, homemade iced-tea, pizza and muffins, raising $400 to go to fellow students in Aupaluk to help fund educational trips and other school supplies. The school in Aupaluk was completely destroyed in a March 2014 fire; a new building is meant to be constructed ahead of September 2016. (PHOTO BY MARIANNE HSEIH)
