October is Women’s History Month in Canada.

🧡October 4 | National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Two-Spirit People

Today, we remember, honour, and uplift the lives of Indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirit people who have been taken from their families and communities.

Throughout this month, SMILE Foundation celebrates the strength, resilience, achievements and contributions of women; past, present and future.

We honour the women who paved the way, the women creating change today and the next generation of women and girls who will continue to lead, inspire and make history.

Different stories. Brighter futures. Stronger together.

🧡 Truth & Reconciliation Day | September 30

Today, SMILE honours Survivors, families, and Indigenous communities impacted by the residential school system.

Reconciliation is more than a day of reflection — it’s an ongoing commitment to listen, learn, support, and take action.

One meaningful way we can show up is by supporting Indigenous-owned businesses, artists, creators, entrepreneurs, and community organizations — not just today, but every day.

🧡 Learn. Support. Amplify. Take Action.

Let’s turn awareness into meaningful, everyday action and continue building relationships rooted in respect, understanding, and reconciliation.

Every Child Matters.
