Sharing stories and educating Canadians

The Legacy of Hope Foundation (LHF) is the sole national producer and presenter of comprehensive exhibitions and commemorative projects on the Residential School experience. Educating and creating opportunities for healing specific to the Residential School experience is vital to the success of the Reconciliation process. LHF gathered over 600 testimonials from Residential School Survivors prior to Indian Residential School Settlement Agreement, and was tasked with preserving the Oral Testimonies of Survivors in a project called Our Stories, Our Strength. LHF remains the custodian of these truths and uses these first person accounts to educate Canadians about this sad chapter in our history.
