Orange Shirt Run/Walk
The Orange Shirt Run/Walk is an annual event held at Kinsmen Sports Centre and Walterdale Hill in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It honors Indigenous children who did not survive the residential school era and supports survivors seeking healing and justice. The run/walk features three distances: a 2.15 km Elder/Kids route, and 5 km and 10 km options, combining pavement and scenic river valley trails.
The event includes a ceremony with elders, a round dance, and on-site activities such as food trucks. It raises funds for OrangeShirtDay.org and local Indigenous grassroots movements, promoting awareness and reconciliation under the theme "Every Child Matters.". Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
