On Red Dress Day, we honour the lives of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people. Started by Métis artist and activist Jaime Black-Morsette in 2010 as the REDress Project, the red dress has become a powerful symbol for raising awareness. Indigenous women and girls make up less than 5% of the Canadian population but represent approximately 24% of all homicide victims.

In United Way Peterborough & District’s latest Point-in-Time homelessness count, we found that there are about twice as many white men than white women experiencing homelessness in Peterborough, but roughly an equal number of Indigenous men and Indigenous women, illustrating the systemic marginalization of Indigenous women in our community.

The final report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls was released in 2019 and includes 231 Calls for Justice directed at not only governments and institutions, but all Canadians. We encourage you to read it.

You can also find learning resources, and other actions you can take on the Red Dress Day page of @amnestycanada's website.

This week, we’re shining a spotlight on the heart of our organization - our volunteers. ❤️

Their generosity, energy, and dedication fuel everything we do at United Way Peterborough & District. Whether they’re packing backpacks, raising awareness, or offering a helping hand behind the scenes, they remind us what community is all about.

To our volunteers: We couldn’t do it without you - and we wouldn’t want to. Thank you for everything that you do!! 🙌 You show up. You pitch in. You make magic happen - and honestly, we don’t know what we’d do without you!

Take a peek at this collage of some of our amazing volunteers - how many familiar faces can you spot? 👀
