Generations,  In Their Own Words.

The Orange Jersey Project exists for youth—and this section exists because of them. Through art, writing, and personal reflections, young athletes across Turtle Island are making sense of the history, expressing what reconciliation means to them, and sharing their hope for the future.

What We’re Looking For

Submissions.

Do you have a photo, a reflection, or a moment worth sharing, send us you work in the form below? You can also tag @orangejerseyproject on social media.

Artwork, Poetry + Stories
Each jersey worn sparks a story. Here you’ll find creative submissions from youth participants, drawings, poems, short stories, and more—created during their journey through the Player Education Portal or team workshops. These voices help us see the future through their eyes: curious, courageous, and ready to lead.
Video Submissions
Hear directly from the athletes. Whether it’s a post-practice reflection, a team message of solidarity, or a short film created as part of a classroom project, these videos show how the learning is landing.
