Forget about that upcoming test, or that last test that was trickier than you thought. Forget about that one assignment that you’re procrastinating and is making you want to rip your hair out. I hope you can reflect on why you are a student in the first place and what it is you hope to achieve. Sometimes, everything just piles on top of each other and it feels paralyzing. I myself know how challenging and exhausting being a student is. Take care – and know we’re cheering you on from Winnipeg, Canada !!!
In doing so, we all grow stronger and smarter together. Learn from your mistakes and share the lessons you learn freely with others. Keep your chin up – DO YOUR BEST – and be proud of your BEST efforts. Indspire has opened the door for US to help out as well - and, we trust that the donations that we and many others send in, will be a help and encouragement to you and others who have a bright future as you strive to grow and learn valuable skills and knowledge. Don’t isolate yourself, rather – look for others that “feel alone” and break the wall that surrounds yourself and them……and, in doing so – you help yourself and the other person. It often feels that way, but I can assure you that the local community – your home community, and even the internet community is a connection point to help you during those times. The uncertainty you feel is common, and we felt it when we were young as well - but, we both know that with the effects of Covid on our country and economy the challenges are not the same as when we were young.Īs I stated in the opening sentence – I wanted to remind you that you are not alone. We hope our words lighten the weight of some of your concerns, and remind you that you are not alone. I want you to be the best that you can be…… Know that I respect your work ethic and want to encourage you to keep aiming high. When I learn that you and other indigenous teens are wanting to reach and develop your potential, I want to support you however I can.
I am now realizing that by isolating you and your ancestors, my parents and grandparents have contributed to this inequality and how you have been treated. Presently, there is a new understanding in Canada that our governments have not treated indigenous people fairly in the past. Many of your parents and grandparents and generations before them never had the chance to complete high school let alone attend post secondary education.

As you develop those skills and learn how to use them, your sense of satisfaction and accomplishment will increase. However, you’ve been blessed with certain skills and abilities that are unique to you. In some ways, it may seem easier to just get any job after high school that does not require any specific training. I want to tell you that you inspire me by choosing to continue with your post-secondary education. Get your education and go out there and take on the world. You may even enjoy learning so much you will continue with cultural and/or academic learning and pass it down to your children. It may seem hard sometimes but it’s worth it. You are an inspiration to your friends, family and those who will follow in your footsteps. I hope by helping in a small way I can also help students to achieve higher education but also a love of lifelong learning. They both enjoy their chosen professions and continue to learn just for the love of it. One is a nurse who works in an Hospital and the other is a law clerk who moved to Yellowknife to work with the federal government. I’m proud to be the mother of two children who achieved more in academic life than I did. I can see that advice was also shared with the students who benefit from Indsoire.
I encouraged my daughters to do something in life that they love and achieve higher education to fulfil their dreams. This was difficult at times but worth it when I graduated and went further in my education. I was once mistaken for the teacher which made me laugh. I was one of the many students who dropped out of high school in the 80’s and went back to high school years later while we raised a family.
