The Darrel Mack Memorial Fund was established in 2025 and will support food security for young people and single parents in the NWT.

Darrel was a beloved husband, father, son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend. He passed away at the age of 54 on March 30 2025 after a four year battle with cancer. Darrel was a great man: he had the strongest of hearts, an indomitable spirit and a powerful love of family, friends and life. He was a charismatic and generous person with strong values who liked to lift up everyone around him, and to help those in need.

Your donation to the Darrel Mack Memorial Fund helps carry on his legacy of care and support for the North.
