Children are the flowers of our communities
PhotoVoice Exhibit Launches in Nanaimo
The PhotoVoice project was designed to support and amplify the voices of Indigenous Youth who participated in 2023 Tribal Journeys and the Queen Liliʻuokalani Outrigger Canoe Race in Kona, Hawaii. With support from our gifting partners, Save the Children Canada’s National Reconciliation Program, Youth were able to share the positive impacts of their experiences through their photos and reflections.
A curated public exhibition of their photos runs from May 23rd to June 28th, 2024 in recognition of National Indigenous History Month at the Nanaimo Harbourfront library.
We’re here to connect commitment with limitless potential.
We are rooted in self-determination and the rights of Indigenous children. KLF benefits from, and honours, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action. We warmly welcome businesses, industries and individuals into the conversation.
“We are proud to be an early partner of Kw’umut Lelum Foundation. We are united in our beliefs that every person has the potential to transform their lives and to improve the lives of their families and their communities. First Nations-led philanthropic organizations know best the initiatives that are needed for maximum impact and positive change and can play an important role in self-determination.”
Kw’umut Lelum Foundation invests in the limitless potential of Indigenous youth and the communities that
love and empower them.
