The Commemorative Support Fund, offered through the Na-mi-quai-ni-mak (I Remember Them) Fund at the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) and in partnership with Parks Canada to support Call to Action 73.9 can provide a one-time grant of up to $25,000 towards commemorative symbols and activities connected to the Indian Residential School System. Please note that limited amount of funding is available. Eligible recipients include non-profit organizations, Indigenous (First Nation, Metis, and Inuit) communities, Survivor organizations, schools, band offices, etc. The selection process will prioritize initiatives that actively involve Survivors in planning and implementation. Communities and Survivors of residential schools know which symbols and activities best support commemorative initiatives within their communities. This fund will support them in pursuing what they consider most beneficial. Possible symbols and activities may include, but are not limited to:

• Commemorative symbols: memorial pieces, healing gardens, murals, carvings, plaques, cradleboards, etc.

• Commemorative activities: memorial feasts, gatherings, ceremonies, etc.
