How To Support Our Work
Make A Contribution
All the money raised by our Drawing Wisdom Films For Dialogue event will be put into the development of educational tools led by our Podcast host and Founder Jada-Gabrielle Pape, wu’Was’ulwat, of the Snuneymuxw and Saanich Nations. We are looking to raise $10,000 to support the development of Indigenous-led curricula to address the many issues we face with colonialism as their root cause, specifically addressing the TRC Calls to Action 10 and 12.
Hire us
We are available to do film production and a full range of creative services. By hiring us for your project you directly support the Drawing Wisdom ‘big picture’ and support our principles of reciprocal ownership over what we co-create.
Become an ally or partner
This could mean being listed on our website as a supporter/ally, or you could actively support us in applying for funding to flow-through for the work we are doing.
