We are deeply grateful for recognition our project has received.
We had the special honour of performing for a Metis Elder Reta Gordon. The gathering was filled with warmth, laughter, and community. Friends and family joined in, including Elders Marie-Louise Perron and Parm Burgie, who helped make the afternoon even more meaningful.
Youth4Youth Canada had the opportunity to share the beauty of Indigenous dance with over 150 young campers aged 3 to 16 at Stonehaven Community Church. The day was filled with joy, learning, and creativity, thanks to the warm welcome we received from Camp Director Gwen, her husband Pastor Kaleb, and their enthusiastic son Cory.
