#GivingTuesday is nearly over, but it’s never to

#GivingTuesday is nearly over, but it’s never too late to share some #Indspiration – and when you meet this next #FutureEducator, we know you’ll agree. 😊

Alyssa Denysuik, like many of the future educators we meet, has a passion for education that comes from her family. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

This B.Ed. student from 📍 Sagkeeng First Nation is studying in the Community Aboriginal Teacher’s Education Program at the University of Winnipeg.

Both her grandmother and mother share her passion for education; her grandmother was a residential school survivor who became an educator while caring for her family of 8, while her mother was a single parent who raised her children while becoming an educator.

Alyssa never felt represented in the classroom as a student, so her mission is to ensure that all Indigenous students maintain essential connections to identity within their school settings. She wants them to be proud of their kin, their communities, and themselves:

“I have many goals as an Indigenous educator. I believe that beyond being there to physically represent who an Indigenous educator is, I want to bring culture and language to the classroom. Therefore, I am currently working on learning to speak Anishnaabemowin, in hopes of becoming a teacher in an Ojibwe bilingual program. My grandmother told me that the most essential piece in cultural resurgence is the language. I believe that by learning the language, I am speaking not only in the present moment, but connecting to my relatives beyond this world. When I graduate, I want to be a part of a community of the matriarchs who have trailblazed before me and cared for the youth by honouring the elder’s teachings.”

Help us support Alyssa’s journey – and the journeys of students like her. ❤️

(Just a reminder: we are very grateful to have four generous, anonymous donors matching your Giving Tuesday gift up to $80,000…so whatever gift you make today will literally have double the impact. 🤩)

We hear it all the time: whoever is standing at the front of your classroom can change your life forever. 👩‍🏫 👨‍🏫

That’s why the TRC’s Calls to Action regarding education are so vital – and why we take our responsibility to #IndigenousEducation, #IndigenousStudents, and #IndigenousEducators so seriously.

There is currently a shortage of Indigenous teachers across the country, and the Assembly of First Nations recently reported that approximately one-third of Indigenous schools in Canada are understaffed.

Our goal is to support future educators so that Indigenous students can learn from Indigenous teachers…and we can’t do it without you. 😊

On this #GivingTuesday, we’d like to introduce you to another wonderful Indigenous educator-in-training who’s changing the educational landscape: Jeremy Dayrider, a member of the Blood Tribe in 📍 Treaty 7 Territory (AB).

Jeremy is currently in the B.Ed. degree program at Red Crow Community College and is the very first member of his family who did not attend residential school – as well as being the first of his siblings to receive an education beyond grade school. 👏

He is fiercely committed to teaching the Blackfoot language and being a resource and role model for other Indigenous students:

“The amount of Indigenous curriculum in the educational institution is minimal. The number of Indigenous scholars pursuing an educational degree is also low. That is why I wish to pursue my B.Ed. to further expand the number of Indigenous scholars, and to help Indigenous students who wish to reclaim their Indigenous identity. It is my long-term goal to develop a full Blackfoot immersion school in my community from grades K-12.”

Future teachers like Jeremy are changing old patterns and creating new, powerful paths for their students and communities. ❤️

Will you be a part of that inspiring journey? 🤔 It’s as simple as clicking the 🔗 link in our bio.

It’s the last week of National Indigenous Education Month…and we’re still thinking about all the amazing people we’ve met this month. 😊

Many of them are making #IndigenousEducation their life’s work. Others are supporting them while they pursue these dreams. 👏

Today, we’re very pleased to report that four generous donors from Ancaster, Fergus, Toronto, and Calgary have created a life-changing opportunity for you to do the same!

Tomorrow, on #GivingTuesday, they will match any gift you make up to $80,000! 🤩 That means your gift will have twice the impact – and create real change in Indigenous education.

We’ll be introducing you to some of these wonderful future educators on our socials over the next few days, and today, we’d like you to meet James Koomak. 🤝

He’s from 📍 Arviat, NU, and is currently in his 2nd year of Nunavut Arctic College’s B.Ed. degree program.

Education is a tradition in James’s family; he would always help his aunt set up her classroom before the beginning of the school year:

“Helping her gave me so much motivation to be a teacher. I only know a few Inuit men in the teaching environment, and I want to be one of them. I also want to teach Inuktitut to the younger generation to preserve the language because it is slowly not spoken and written.”

Supporting Indigenous educators like James is a meaningful way to create powerful, lasting change – not just for James and his community, but for all of Turtle Island. And with the generosity of those four donors, your gift will go twice as far.

Join us in helping to create that change (🔗 link in bio) – and watch this space to meet more amazing Indigenous educators! ❤️
