 Spiritlink Communications
Publication Dates - RedWAY BC News E-zine (Electronic Magazine)
Mission: RedWAY BC News is a free on-line newsletter created with direct input from its readers to promote communication about the diversity of Canada's Aboriginal peoples and cultures. It provides ways to immediately strengthen and enhance the creative and technical capacity of Urban Aboriginal Youth, businesses and organizations throughout Canada, starting with BC's Lower Mainland. Our mandate is "honour, inform and connect."
By publishing culturally relevant on-line content in an electronic magazine (or e-zine) format, RedWAY BC News is an innovative and interactive communication tool. It helps celebrate successes and address the wide range of needs faced by Urban Aboriginal Youth in BC. Since November of 2003, Spiritlink Communications has worked closely with over 70 Urban Aboriginal Youth to design, create and maintain the free, secure e-zine for the community.
Originally designed to gather information for and to promote the RedWAY BC Website project ( www.redwaybc.ca), RedWAY BC News has expanded its content, subscriber base and reach to include an international audience of over 9,200 international subscribers (as of August 2010).
