Product Details
"Every child matters, including you and me. With our orange hearts, we walk in harmony. As a young child, your little world can be full of big emotions. In this book, I, Phyllis Webstad, founder of Orange Shirt Day, show that sharing my story with the world helped me to process my feelings. My true orange shirt story encourages young children to open their hearts and listen as others share their feelings, and to be more comfortable sharing their own feelings too. Listening is a first step towards reconciliation. It's never too early to start."
Phyllis Webstad (nee Jack) is Northern Secwepemc (Shuswap) from the Stswecem'c Xgat'tem First Nation (Canoe Creek Indian Band). She comes from mixed Secwepemc and Irish/French heritage. She was born in Dog Creek and lives in Williams Lake, BC, Canada. Phyllis is the founder of the Orange Shirt Day movement and has inspired thousands of people to honour Residential School Survivors and their families and share the call on September 30th of each year that "EVERY CHILD MATTERS." Phyllis is well respected for her work, her courage and for striving to heal our communities and Nation through speaking her truth.
Maker House is proud to donate all net proceeds (50% of the sales) from this book to Indigenous communities and organizations through our #CraftChange Program. We have raised over $20,000 through 2024 and currently donate to the Orange Shirt Society and the First Nations Child & Family Caring Society. Watch our Instagram for donation updates in June for Indigenous Peoples Month, and again on September 30th for Truth and Reconciliation Day.
