Planting A Seed

In Canada, 1 in 5 children live in poverty. That number is 1 in 2 for First Nations Children.

“First Nations children are far and away the most marginalized and economically disadvantaged... 47% of status First Nations children live in poverty (53% for those living on reserve and 41% for those living off reserve)” – Towards Justice: Tackling Indigenous Child Poverty in Canada

Now more than ever, it’s important to invest in Indigenous education to help build a stronger future for the Indigenous people and a more united Canada.

Planting a Seed is an Indigenous run organization that is solely focused on providing children in the First Nations communities in Ontario with the basic school supplies needed to help support their education journey.

Please help us at Planting a Seed make a difference in our First Nations communities in Canada. Your donations will ensure these students get off to a good and fair start by providing the basic school supplies they need to help them succeed on their education journey. 

It’s estimated that 350,000 Indigenous children will turn 15 in the decade from 2016 through 2026. This cohort has the chance to shape the future of the country.
