Fergusson Foundation Committed to being a catalyst for the prevention and elimination of family violence.

10/07/2026

Since the Gender-based Violence Program started in 2018, WAGE-funded projects have reached over 90,000 people, created more than 2,200 resources, and built or strengthened over 1,400 partnerships and collaborations.

On October 1, 2026, Minister Valdez announced an additional $427K to help She Matters United expand the project with more in-person community engagement activities to even more provinces and territories in Canada.

Survivors of sexual violence deserve access to timely, responsive and equitable supports and services, regardless of where they live.

October 4 | Sisters in Spirit Day

Today, we honour and remember Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQIA+ people, and stand alongside the families, loved ones and communities who continue to carry their memories and call for justice.

Sisters in Spirit Day is a time for remembrance, but also for action. At the Fergusson Foundation, we recognize the importance of listening, learning and supporting the ongoing work to address the violence that continues to disproportionately impact Indigenous women, girls and gender-diverse people.

We encourage everyone to take time today to learn, reflect and honour those whose lives have been lost and those who continue to seek answers and justice.

4 octobre | Journée Sœurs par l’esprit

Aujourd’hui, nous rendons hommage aux femmes, aux filles et aux personnes 2ELGBTQIA+ autochtones disparues et assassinées, et nous exprimons notre solidarité envers les familles, les proches et les communautés qui perpétuent leur mémoire et continuent de réclamer justice.

La Journée Sœurs par l’esprit est un moment de commémoration, mais aussi d’action. À la Fondation Fergusson, nous reconnaissons l’importance d’écouter, d’apprendre et de soutenir les efforts continus visant à contrer la violence qui touche de façon disproportionnée les femmes, les filles et les personnes de diverses identités de genre autochtones.

Nous encourageons chacun et chacune à prendre un moment aujourd’hui pour apprendre, réfléchir et rendre hommage aux personnes dont la vie a été enlevée ainsi qu’à celles et ceux qui continuent de chercher des réponses et d’exiger justice.

In recognition of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, and in solidarity with all Indigenous communities across Turtle Island, the Fergusson Foundation joins Canadians in honouring Survivors, their families and communities, and remembering the children who never returned home.

Today, we take time to listen, learn and reflect on our shared responsibility to advance reconciliation—not only today, but throughout the year.

We encourage everyone to wear orange, continue learning, and reflect on the role we can each play in reconciliation.

À l’occasion de la Journée nationale de la vérité et de la réconciliation, et en solidarité avec toutes les communautés autochtones d’Île-de-la-Tortue, la Fondation Fergusson se joint aux Canadiens pour rendre hommage aux survivants, à leurs familles et à leurs communautés, et pour se souvenir des enfants qui ne sont jamais rentrés chez eux.

Aujourd’hui, nous prenons le temps d’écouter, d’apprendre et de réfléchir à notre responsabilité commune de faire avancer la réconciliation — non seulement aujourd’hui, mais tout au long de l’année.

Nous encourageons chacun à porter du orange, à continuer à s’informer et à réfléchir au rôle que nous pouvons tous jouer dans la réconciliation.
