content: British medical missionary Wilfred Grenfell devoted much of his life to the establishment of regular health-care services in Labrador and northern Newfoundland. He first went to Labrador in 1892. The Grenfell Mission also helped create a local handicraft industry that allowed residents to sell their items at North American retail shops.
