** Meet Our 2025 Keepers of the Earth Fund Grant Partners Focusing on Food Sovereignty, Indigenous Medicine, and Spirituality
------------------------------------------------------------

The Keepers of the Earth Fund (KOEF) is proud to announce our 2025 partnerships with Indigenous communities. At Cultural Survival, we value cultivating long-term relationships with our partners.

The Keepers of the Earth Fund is an Indigenous-led fund at Cultural Survival designed to strengthen Indigenous Peoples' advocacy and community development projects globally. Since 2017, we have supported 440 projects in 42 countries through small grants and a wrap-around approach totaling $2,667,147. Grants go directly to Indigenous communities, collectives, organizations, and traditional governments to support projects they designed and in accordance with their Indigenous values. Predicated on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Cultural Survival uses a rights-based approach in our grantmaking strategies to support grassroots Indigenous solutions through the equitable distribution of resources to Indigenous communities.

In 2026, our ninth year of operations, we supported 65 Indigenous projects and collectives for a total amount of $531,000. The funds were sent directly to Indigenous communities, collectives, and grassroots organizations in 26 countries.

Meet our grant partners working to secure ​​​​​​subsistence and food sovereignty based on Indigenous Knowledge and those protecting Indigenous medicine and spirituality. ([link removed])
