Wake the Giant is a movement that was created in 2019 to provide the Thunder Bay community with awareness and tools to better respond to racism and help celebrate the enduring cultural diversity of Indigenous Peoples. All funding raised from the music festival supports Indigenous youth that are high school students from remote First Nation communities, which includes orientation events, workshops and the transition to life in the city.
