Reconciliation Saskatoon is proud to support Orange Shirt Day on September 30 which aims to raise awareness of the devastating impact of the residential school system on aboriginal people and their descendants.

Get involved by wearing an orange t-shirt or clothing item and join the Community Pancake Breakfast to honour residential school survivors, and those who were lost.

As Orange Shirt Day falls on a non-school day this year, schools across Saskatoon will participate by running educational activities on Friday, September 29. Saskatchewan school boards officially recognized Orange Shirt Day in 2016.

Remembering the history and legacy of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process for our community and responds directly to the Truth and Reconciliation of Canada's (TRC) Call to Action.

Community Pancake Breakfast
Date: Saturday, September 30, 2017
Time: 7.30 am - 10:00 am
Location: CUMFI, 315 Avenue M South, Saskatoon
