Description:

This orange cotton T-shirt, size medium, includes an "Every Child Matters" graphic. It was designed by local artist “RFJ” for the Orange Shirt Day movement. 

Orange Shirt Day commemorates “the residential school experience, to witness and honour the healing journey of the survivors and their families, and to commit to the ongoing process of reconciliation. The annual Orange Shirt Day on September 30th opens the door to global conversation on all aspects of Residential Schools. It is an opportunity to create meaningful discussion about the effects of Residential Schools and the legacy they have left behind… Every Child Matters, even if they are an adult, from now on.” - Courtesy of the Orange Shirt Society
