By Nati Garicia (Maya Mam, CS Staff) On September 30, 2021, Canada will hold its first-ever statutory holiday observation of Orange Shirt Day, also known as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, to commemorate the missing and murdered children from residential schools and honor the healing journey of residential school survivors. Orange Shirt Day has been widely observed since 2013 to raise awareness about the residential school system and its impact on Indigenous communities for over a century.
Learn the meaning behind the phrase, 'Every Child Matters.' Orange Shirt Day founder, Phyllis Webstad, offers insights into this heartfelt movement. Every Child Matters honours the history and resiliency of Indigenous Peoples on Turtle Island and moves us all forward on a path toward Truth and Reconciliation. If you're a Residential School Survivor or an Intergenerational Survivor - you matter. For the children who didn't make it home - you matter. The child inside every one of us matters. Every Child Matters. Medicine Wheel Publishing is committed to sharing diverse voices and perspectives, creating a platform for stories that celebrate Indigenous cultures and inspire understanding and respect among readers of all ages.

Every Child Matters Hoodie | Orange Shirt Day | Indigenous Canada | Residential School Protest | Chaque Enfant Compte Pullover Sweater Orange Shirt Day falls on September 30th (National Day for Truth and Reconciliation) in Canada.

Orange Shirt Day, founded by residential school survivor Phyllis Webstad, is held on Sept. 30 to honour the survivors of residential schools and their families.
The Orange Shirt Story was the best selling children's book in Canada for several weeks in September (Book manager). This true story also inspired the movement of Orange Shirt Day which could become a federal statutory holiday. When Phyllis Webstad (nee Jack) turned six, she went to the residential school for the first time. On her first day at school, she wore a shiny orange shirt that her Granny had bought for her, but when she got to the school, it was taken away from her and never returned. This is the true story of Phyllis and her orange shirt. It is also the story of Orange Shirt Day (an important day of remembrance for First Nations and non First Nations Canadians).

Orange Shirt Day, which takes place Sept. 30, is an annual event that honours the survivors of residential schools and their families.
O R A N G E S H I R T D A Y Wearing an Orange Shirt on September 30th is meant to recognize the harm done to Residential School students, and show a commitment to the principle that every child matters. This year we are once again holding a fundraiser for Orange Shirt Day for Woodland Cultural Center. As you know, last year we donated over $12,000 from the sales of Orange Shirt Day. This year, I am happy to announce that 100% of sales will be donated to WCC (yes you read that correctly, 100%). My employer is donating the cost of all raw materials to make the t-shirts. My HR team is also volunteering to tie dye the t-shirts. AND, this year I am able to connect with a youth Indigenous artist that helped with the drawing of this year’s print. Indigenous Artist: Kianna Powless a 14 year old artist who is Haudenosaunee from Six Nations of the Grand River. Kianna has been an artist since she could hold a crayon and in the future hopes to pursue a career as a tattoo artist. You can follow her @kpowlessillustrations All orders must be submitted by Friday September 23. We are looking forward for your support. Nya:weh / Thank you.

People throughout Canada attended gatherings on Saturday to mark the third annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, with many turning out in orange shirts to honour Indigenous students forced to attend residential schools — many of whom never made it home.
Connecting to Culture and Gaining Deeper Understanding Maffioli grew up in the Grand Forks area where from her early days in elementary school was drawn to activities involving Indigenous art and culture. In middle school, an aunt traced her father’s linage to a great-great-great grandmother who was an orphan in Manitoba’s Red River Colony. “Selkirk College Elder Donna Wright says when we are born into this world, we belong already because of the air that we breathe,” Maffioli says. “When I found out that I was Métis, I felt like I belonged even more. This culture that I have been learning about since elementary school, it has always held such a deep part of me and I didn’t really know why. When I found out, it made so much sense because it is part of me… it’s who I am.” With full support of her parents and family, Maffioli continued her learning journey through high school. She connected with Indigenous Elders and helped provide education to peers through art, craft, drumming and understanding of the past. Graduating as part of the Grand Forks Secondary School’s Class of 2022, Maffioli was emboldened to continue strengthening her knowledge at the post-secondary level. Wear Orange on September 30 Orange Shirt Day began in 2013 when Phyllis (Jack) Webstad began telling the story of her first day at residential school near Williams Lake when her shiny new orange shirt, bought by her grandmother, was taken from her as a six-year-old girl. The annual Orange Shirt Day on September 30 opens the door to global conversation on all aspects of residential schools. It is an opportunity to create meaningful discussion about the effects of residential schools and the legacy they have left behind. “Wearing orange symbolizes the loss that we have gone through, it symbolizes the rage and anger we have felt from losing our children and having families torn apart,” Maffioli explains. “But orange also symbolizes hope, the truth and reconciliation that we can bring into our communities. What Indigenous people went through was genocide and people may think that it was in the past, but it still impacts Indigenous populations. We need to work together to make this better.” With her design now an important part of the local truth and reconciliation journey, Maffioli is honoured to play a small role in deeper understanding. “It makes me feel hopeful,” she says. “I have a lot of hope with our generation and the awareness we have of our Indigenous culture. There is still change that needs to be made, but I have trust in our youth, in our students and in our education that we will be able to make that change for the better.” 💝THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING US!💝 MMIW Awareness: Together We Can: Donate Information: Each $1 contribution from you has helped create a meaningful impact and raise awareness about the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW).With your support and the collective effort of our customers, we are pleased to announce that we have donated $4000 to MMIW USA through mmiwusa.org.

Every Child Matters Shirt | Orange Shirt Day Tee | Indigenous Canada | Chaque Enfant Compte Tshirt | National Day For Truth & Reconciliation ☆☆ WHAT IS ORANGE SHIRT DAY? ☆☆ Orange Shirt Day falls on September 30th (National Day for Truth and Reconciliation) in Canada. Orange Shirt Day is an Indigenous-led grassroots commemorative day that honours the children who survived residential schools and remembers those who did not. This day relates to the experience of Phyllis Webstad, a Northern Secwepemc (Shuswap) from the Stswecem'c Xgat'tem First Nation, on her first day of school, where she arrived dressed in a new orange shirt, which was taken from her. It is now a symbol of the stripping away of culture, freedom and self-esteem experienced by Indigenous children over generations. On September 30, we encourage all Canadians and the world to wear orange to raise awareness of the very tragic legacy of residential schools, and to honour the thousands of Survivors. Portion of proceeds from the sale of this hoodie will be donated back to an indigenous charity or non profit organization that support Indigenous youth. ☆☆ SUPER FAST SHIPPING ☆☆ High quality premium shirts PRINTED IN CANADA 🍁 USA 🇺🇸 AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 UK 🇬🇧 & EUROPE for faster shipping. 🇨🇦 CANADIAN SHOPPERS 🇨🇦 All orders are printed and shipped directly from our print shop in Alberta or our Ontario print shop depending on stock.

We were super inspired when we found our young tribe at Central Toronto Academy High School students. These students are our next leaders and are deeply invested in supporting the indigenous communities. On Orange Shirt Day we partnered with the students and provided them our super soft Fair Trade organic tees.
