À propos de DWF
Inspired by Chanie’s story and Gord’s call to build a better Canada, the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund (DWF) aims to build cultural understanding and create a path toward reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. Our goal is to improve the lives of Indigenous people by building awareness, education, and connections between all peoples in Canada.
Nous atteignons notre objectif en donnant accès à l'éducation sur la véritable histoire du Canada et l'impact durable des pensionnats. DWF encourage la réconciliation par le biais de ses programmes, campagnes et événements, notammentréconciliACtions- des actions significatives qui font avancer la réconciliation.
