subarctic research

support a researcher

Literally

For only $250, you can provide one researcher at the Churchill Northern Studies Centre with a brand new mattress. A good night’s rest is essential for the safety and success to conduct research in the subarctic.

Researchers from around the world use the Churchill Northern Studies Centre as their affordable, accessible headquarters for data and specimen collection. Since the CNSC is the only non-profit, independent research station in Canada, your support is crucial to ensuring the success of subarctic science. 

To study in Canada’s remote subarctic, researchers require a great deal of support.

By donating to the Churchill Northern Studies Centre, you’re providing subarctic scientists with all the resources they need to continue their critical work.
