We are thrilled to announce the launch of our Indigenous Grant this month.
As part of our commitment to reconciliation, the Silver Gummy Foundation has committed to building relationships with Indigenous organizations whose mandate is to help re-build positive gender identities for Indigenous youth through the reclamation of culture, epistemology and youth driven participatory approaches to change.

We recognize that change is only possible when research institutions, community programming, schools and youth have reciprocal relationships of teaching and learning.
