My moccasins are in two communities, this is my urban community 🥹
We gathered as a diverse group of urban-living Indigenous peoples to connect over food, fancy shawl & jingle dancing, charity fundraising and of course… Scrunchies!!
Thank you for making this charity fundraising event come to life!
We surpassed my goal of fundraising $400 for Sunshine House , an Indigenous & 2SLGBTQIA+ harm reduction Initiative 🫶🏼🩷
(A shoutout to my creative student, Shiloh, who donated her time & talent to create personal caricatures of the guests. You’re the best!!)
I’m at a lack of words for how intensely grateful I am for both scrunchie releases so far. We almost sold out AGAIN! Now, time for the final online release ☺️ (mark your calendars for June 12th!)
-Mīgwetch to Maniwaki Native Friendship Center for accommodating us
-Mīgwetch to Kokom Scrunchies for the on-going support & leadership
-Mīgwetch to my students for performing the opening dances ⭐️
-Mīgwetch to my “sisters” for showing up time and time again
-Mīgwetch to the new faces, I hope to connect again
-Lastly, Mīgwetch to the young ones who came with posters, “good luck bannock” and “good luck rocks”. You rock 😩😭💗
