Throwback October! 🔙  - Vaupés edition - 🤝 

We're taking a trip down memory lane to our unforgettable event in Vaupés-Colombia. 🇨🇴

✨Orange Shirt Day is celebrated on September 30th in Canada to honor Indigenous Children who were sent to residential schools. Did you know that this day is more than just a remembrance? It reflects our mission to spread our wings and support healing and reconciliation. Inspired by Phyllis Webstad, whose orange shirt was taken away on her first day of school. It’s a powerful reminder of the negative impact of colonialism. 

Let’s wear orange and embrace this important history together! 🧡

On October 17th, we at the Winged Foundation celebrated the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. Our commitment to Sustainable Development Goal #1—No Poverty—guides our efforts to create a world where everyone can thrive. Thank you for joining us in this important mission!
