On June 11 2014, give First Nations children the same chance to grow up safely at home, get a good education, be healthy, and be proud of their cultures.
Our Dreams Matter Too is a walk and letter writing event supporting culturally based equity for First Nations children. There were more than 35 Our Dreams Matter Too walks across Canada last year, and over 5000 walkers! With your help, we hope to see an even greater number in 2014.
Encourage children, youth, families, schools and organizations in your area to write letters to your MP and the Prime Minister supporting culturally based equity for First Nations children and organize a walk to a mail box in your community!
On this site you will find a variety of materials to help promote your event, including posters, bookmarks, buttons, a sample letter, tips for organizing a walk in your community and much more!
Postage is free for letters to the Prime Minister and Members of Parliament

Tell your local MP or Prime Minister Harper that the dreams of First Nation children matter or organize a walk in your community!
