💚 Today is International Day of Charity, a day celebrated in honour of those working to alleviate humanitarian issues, and to encourage individuals, organizations, and governments to help others through philanthropy and volunteering.

At Spirit North, generosity takes many shapes: it looks like donating, volunteering and working together to create more opportunities for Indigenous youth to experience the joy of sport and play, connect with the land and water, and build confidence and connection.

Thank you to everyone who chooses to give, support and walk alongside this work to strengthen our circle of impact!

What does support through Rogers Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLink make possible?

For Spirit North, it means more opportunities for Indigenous youth to experience the joy of sport and play, build confidence, strengthen connections and spend meaningful time being active outdoors.

Support through Rogers Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLink lets us keep creating opportunities alongside communities and reaching youth through experiences that encourage movement, connection and belonging.

We're incredibly grateful to Rogers Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLink, Rogers Charity Classic, and everyone who gives through the program. Your support keeps Indigenous youth moving, playing and connecting.

Wednesday was a beautiful day for a paddle out on Wedge Pond in Kananaskis, AB with our friends and youth from Siksika Health Services. A relaxing day of paddleboarding morphed into "battleboarding" and finished off with a team game of "Piano Keys." 💦☀️

Big thanks and bigger gear bags today! 🧣❄️

Ski Like a Girl Podcast Team and the University of Alberta's Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation sent off a generous gear donation this week — bringing our total to 665 items so far, including scarves, toques, and mittens.

This gear is headed to Indigenous communities across Alberta, ready to fuel a winter full of movement and play on the land.

A huge shoutout to everyone who showed up for the send-off: , KSR / FKSR, Professor PearlAnn Reichwein, Leah Reid, Acting Dean Joanna Auger, Dean Budynski, and Yar Mayen from Campus and Community Recreation.

This kind of generosity gives our whole team a boost. Thank you for being part of the Spirit North community! 💚
