March Charity Donation 💛 (Patreon)

Hi everyone,

I'm back to let you know about March's charity donation! 💛

This month's charity donation has gone to the Native Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC). This charity was chosen because of the many continuing investigations of unmarked graves near residential schools in Canada, and the genocide of Indigenous people that has occurred throughout Canada’s history.

The donation will help support NWAC to continue to do the important work of being the national voice in representing Indigenous women and gender diverse people. NWAC works on many different issues such as: Employment, labour and business, health, violence prevention and safety, justice and human rights, environment, early learning childcare, and international affairs. Their mission statement from their website: To advocate for and inspire women, girls, 2SLGBTQQAI+ people, and the families of many Indigenous nations.

For more information, check out their website here: https://nwac.ca/about-us

If you are a former residential school student in distress, or have been affected by the residential school system and need help, you can contact the 24-hour Indian Residential Schools Crisis Line at 1-866-925-4419, or the Indian Residential School Survivors Society toll-free line at 1-800-721-0066.

Sending love and gratitude,

Alayna Joy 🌿
