#GivingTuesdayCA is finally here! The Woodland Cultural Centre is asking for your help today to support the Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department.

Click the link in our bio to DONATE NOW!

"The important work that the Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department has been doing since 1983 has significantly impacted the language revitalization efforts and advocacy for the endangered languages of the Hodinohsho:ni people. However, every day is critical to ensure that we continue to research, record, teach and develop language resources to ensure that future generations will have access to learn and speak our languages. The preservation efforts Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department undertakes ties directly to our vision in which ‘As a Centre of excellence, Woodland Cultural Centre envisions a future where Hodinohsho:ni people will speak their language, know and practice their culture, and share their history.'" – Janis Monture, Executive Director

The Woodland Cultural Centre is grateful to have the support of the Dufresne-Ray Family Fund at Hamilton Community Foundation, who for the third year in a row will match your donations for the day up to $5,000.

Click the link in our bio to DONATE NOW on our #GivingTuesdayCA donation page to support WCC Language revitalization today! Enhancing the languages and cultures of the Hodinohsho:ni is crucial, and every dollar you contribute goes towards this essential work!

TOMORROW IS GIVINGTUESDAY! We are asking for you

TOMORROW IS GIVINGTUESDAY!

We are asking for your help this GivingTuesday to raise $10,000 for the Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department to help support their work to strengthen and revitalize Hodinohsho:ni languages and cultures.

This year also marks the start of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022-2032) as proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly. The Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department needs your support in revitalizing and promoting Hodinohsho:ni languages. They will be working hard to develop resources, classes, workshops, recordings, and professional development to ensure future generations will have access to learn and speak Hodinohsho:ni languages.

"Please accept my warmest and sincerest thanks for one of the most enriching learning opportunities I've had in quite some time. I can't tell you how much it meant to me to feel the kindness, openness, and respect that was present in that room for those five days. It truly gave me a lot of hope for our community." - Naomi Johnson, Cycle of Ceremonies Workshop Series Attendee

- Feature from Vol 13 number 3&4 of Wadrihwa⁠
- The Wadrihwa was first published by the Woodland Cultural Centre in 1985 and remained a treasured resource for Indigenous culture, art and history for all of the surrounding communities. The newsletter was known for sharing the stories of the Centre and keeping the community engaged in all of the incredible programming available. The word “Wadrihwa” is a Cayuga word meaning “Spread the Word” or “Spread the News” and we hope this newsletter will be a resource used by many to help us do that.⁠

GivingTuesday is next week and we wanted to share

GivingTuesday is next week and we wanted to share some of the amazing work that the Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department does and how your contributions will be used! ⁠
⁠
Our team provides support to First Language speakers in documenting Indigenous languages for younger generations to come. They work with language speakers, traditional knowledge keepers and consultants from all Hodinohsho:ni communities to keep these critically endangered languages alive for the foreseeable future. ⁠
⁠
They have been busy collaborating with other departments to enhance and revive WCC past projects and resources to provide more language and cultural exposure to a wide range of language learners. More recently, our team has been working to document some Hodinohsho:ni land-based practices, as well as begin a language radio show on CKRZ 100.3 FM.⁠
⁠
This month, the Language Department held their final Cycle of Ceremonies workshop which focused on the Fall ceremonies. This was such a special project and it was amazing to connect with so many community members. “Niawenhko:wa for all that you are doing to educate and encourage people. These sessions mean so much more than information – they are inclusion, validation, healing and a safe space to find answers. I appreciate everyone sharing the knowledge and lessons they have. I have learned so much already. Feeling grateful, sending love, positive energy and strength for all that you do.” -Aisha Roustoule General, Cycle of Ceremonies Participant⁠
⁠
Help us raise $10,000 for the Dwadwęnaga:da:t Language Department by showing your support for Hodinohsho:ni language revitalization on November 29th for #GivingTuesdayCA. ⁠
