Sign up to volunteer at the Every Child Matters Healing Walk & Rally on September 30th :)

The rally will begin at 2pm outside of the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto (16 Spadina Rd)

Please reach out to SistersinSolidarity_TO@proton.me if you have any questions.

This healing walk and rally takes place on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day.
