About The Event

Learn to Manage Your Money the Indigenous Way - Free Workshop in Loon Lake!

All Indigenous Women and 2-Spirited people (ages 16+) are invited to join us for a free two-day Learning Indigenous Financial Teaching Workshop (LIFT) — an amazing time filled with Indigenous teachings, financial empowerment, laughter, fantastic prizes, an iPad draw, and community connection. Learn how to decolonize your money mindset, create your personal budget, repay debt with a plan, and more!

This includes status, non-status, and self-declared First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people.

The LIFT Workshop (Learning Indigenous Financial Teachings) blends traditional knowledge and modern financial tools to support your personal money journey:

  • Decolonizing Your Money Mindset
  • Personal Budgeting & Planning
  • Debt Repayment & Credit Awareness
  • Investing in Yourself — Spiritually, Mentally, Emotionally, and Financially

There will be a prize draw at the end of each of the nine sessions over the two days! There are many prizes to be won, including a chance to win the iPad at the end of the workshop!

Childcare is available if you need it and is provided by KTC Awas'ak Family Services. We want to make it easier for you to attend.
