The Legacy of Hope Foundation wishes to honour Paula-Lynn Duke for her Donation and Support

(Ottawa, ON) January 20, 2022 – The Legacy of Hope Foundation (LHF) is grateful for the donation made by Paula-Lynn as a result of her fundraising efforts. Thanks to their donation, we will be able to increase the effectiveness of our mandate which is centred around the importance of Reconciliation through education.

“The initiative and care of individuals like Paula-Lynn means everything to us. We feel the support and now more than ever, we see the need for increased availability of resources so that the process of Reconciliation amongst all Canadians and Indigenous Peoples can become a lived reality,” said Teresa Edwards, Executive Director and In-House Legal Counsel at the LHF.

The LHF is a national, Indigenous-led, charitable organization that has been working to promote healing and Reconciliation in Canada for over 21 years. The LHF’s goal is to educate and raise awareness about the history and existing intergenerational impacts of the Residential and Day School Systems and subsequent Sixties Scoop on Indigenous (First Nations, Inuit, and Métis) Survivors, their descendants, and their communities to promote hope and healing in Canada. The LHF works to encourage people to address discrimination and injustice in order to contribute to the equity, dignity, and respectful treatment of Indigenous Peoples and to foster Reconciliation.

La FAE dispose de plus de 25 expositions accessibles au public et travaille à rendre ses autres expositions disponibles en ligne. La Fondation possède également des programmes d'enseignement de la maternelle à la 12e année et pour les adultes, ainsi que des guides d'activités visant à sensibiliser les Canadiens à l'histoire autochtone et à l'histoire commune des pensionnats et des externats, de la Rafle des années 60, etc. La FAE travaille à développer l'empathie et la compréhension afin d'éliminer le racisme à l’égard des peuples autochtones.
