Doing so affirms that “Every Child Matters.” You can wear any orange shirt to show your solidarity. \nIn recognition of Orange Shirt Day 2025 and the National Day for Truth & Reconciliation\, the Office of Indigenous Initiatives has partnered with the U of T Bookstore on a limited supply of orange t-shirts. \nThe shirts feature an award-winning design by MJ Singleton\, an Ojibwe\, two-spirit student from Migisi Sahgaigan First Nation who is studying at the University of Toronto Mississauga. Their design\, titled noojimo’iwe\, emphasizes the importance of healing the intergenerational trauma of residential schooling by supporting and loving those around you. It portrays a mother holding hands and walking forward with her two children. Above them is a bright sun with contour lines connecting to a floral pattern and designs representing all living things. \nAll proceeds from the sale of these shirts will be directed to the Orange Shirt Society—no proceeds will go to the U of T Bookstore or the University of Toronto. \nParticipate Virtually in Orange Shirt Day\nWe also encourage all U of T community members to use the Orange Shirt Day virtual background and profile icon\, featuring MJ Singleton’s design\, the week of September 22-30.
