September 30th is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, which coincides with Orange Shirt Day, an Indigenous-led grassroots campaign intended to raise awareness of the inter-generational impacts of residential schools. This day honours the legacy of residential school survivors as well as those who never returned home and ensures that public commemoration of the tragic and painful history is a vital component of the reconciliation process.
Allstate Canada made a donation of $5000 to the Anishnawbe Health Foundation in honour of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation as staff wore orange shirts, featuring artwork by Mindy Sinclair of Peguis First Nation in Manitoba.
