Reflect. Then act.
On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation give one day’s pay or what you can afford to an Indigenous-led organization
One Day's Pay Indigenous-Led Partner Organizations for 2026:
Sacred Earth
NATIONAL
Sacred Earth is an Indigenous-led non-profit that advances a Just Transition. For Sacred Earth, a Just Transition means moving towards climate solutions that center Indigenous rights, cultural resilience, healing from colonization, and ecological balance for human and non-human kin. Our four leading pathways are: (1) Climate Solutions and Clean Energy Infrastructure, (2) Healing Justice, (3) Education and Training, and (4) Policy and Advocacy.
“Sacred Earth honours residential school survivors and the harms of the Indian residential school system on our families and communities by decentralizing colonial systems and empowering Indigenous self-determination.
We embody healing justice in our work as a return to ancestral ways of knowing and being that prioritize relationships and wellbeing.
Truth and reconciliation reminds us that healing is collective and requires settlers, newcomers, immigrants, and Indigenous peoples to come together to create a future that upholds all 94 TRC Calls to Action.”
Stqeeye’ Learning Society
TRADITIONAL TERRITORY OF THE QUW’UTSUN PEOPLES
Stqeeye’ Learning Society is an Indigenous-led non-profit organization on Saltspring Island, BC. in the traditional territory of the Quw’utsun Peoples. We restore and protect the waters of Xwaaqw’um while revitalizing Indigenous knowledge, culture, and stewardship. Guided by Quw’utsun descendants, Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and Youth, we foster self-determination and land-based learning.
Funds raised through One Days Pay will reconnect Elders and Indigenous Youth through land-based learning, cultural knowledge sharing, and leadership development. Contributions also support Indigenous food sovereignty and the restoration of traditional food systems, empowering youth to strengthen their identity, leadership, and connection to the land.

I just want to come home (to Xwaaqw’um)”
Clan Mothers Healing Village & Knowledge Centre
TREATY 1 TERRITORY
The Clan Mothers Healing Village & Knowledge Centre is an Indigenous-led, non-profit organization that provides long-term, land-based healing programs for Indigenous women and two-spirit relatives who suffer from multigenerational systemic trauma, violence, sexual exploitation and trafficking. Skills based training fosters growth and prepares participants for a sustainable future with employment opportunities within our own social enterprise.
“The heart and spirit of the Village is the resurgence of using Indigenous methodologies and world views to heal the most important beings in communities across Canada, the mothers and daughters of the next generation.”
We invite those who can to give generously, abundantly, and without restriction. That includes giving without requiring a charitable tax receipt on September 30 for organizations that cannot provide them as many Indigenous-led projects, organizations and movements either aren’t eligible to become registered charities or choose not to seek charitable status.
The movement is growing. People across the country have responded to One Day’s Pay call to action, donating close to $1,000,000 over the last five years to Indigenous-led Initiatives
The One Day’s Pay Campaign
On Canada’s first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30th, 2021, One Day’s Pay launched a grassroots campaign to mobilize settlers and non-Indigenous people in Canada to meaningfully recognize the tragic history and ongoing legacy of residential schools, and to honour their survivors, their families and communities.
Money goes directly to the profiled organizations. One Day’s Pay is volunteer run by settlers and non-Indigenous Canadians as an act of responsibility, repair and reciprocity.
One Day’s Pay is guided by The Circle on Philanthropy, a national Indigenous led organization that works to transform the philanthropic sector to redistribute wealth, activate wisdom and strengthen organizational infrastructure for the purpose of Indigenous peoples, organizations, communities and nations.
