Welcome to Odawa Bound!

 

Boozhoo! Aaniin! Greetings to all my First Nations relatives and Native American kin from across the United States and Canada. I am honored to extend my warmest welcome to you as we embark on a journey together toward empowerment, solidarity, and community building.

 

As a proud member of the Sheshegwaning First Nation, with roots that stretch from Montana and Michigan to Ontario, I am deeply committed to strengthening connections and solidifying our communities. Our shared history, culture, and traditions bind us together in a tapestry of resilience and strength. It is with this spirit that we come together on this platform to uplift one another and pave the way for a brighter future.

 

At Odawa Bound, our mission is clear: we strive to empower First Nations members to become better neighbors, teachers, and community leaders. Through meaningful dialogue, resources, and support, we aim to nurture the potential within each of us to effect positive change within our communities and beyond.

 

Whether you are seeking inspiration, knowledge, or something as simple as a sense of belonging, you have found a welcoming home here. Let us embark on this journey together, guided by the principles of respect, reciprocity, and unity.

 

Chi-Miigwetch! Miigwetch! Thank you for joining us. Together, let us build a future where our voices are heard, our cultures are celebrated, and our communities thrive.

 

Wishing you all peace, prosperity, and joy on your journey ahead.

 

With gratitude,

Annette Cada
