Support Indigenous Rights, Leadership, and Solutions with a Matching Gift!

#GivingTuesday has arrived! Until midnight tonight, people around the world are joining together in a collective act of generosity. We hope you’ll be part of this movement by supporting the Indigenous languages, leadership, and community-driven solutions that are building a better future for us all. Every contribution today goes twice as far - your gift will be matched dollar for dollar up to $5,000, thanks to the heartfelt generosity of former board member Ranganath Nayak.

We wanted to share a few of our accomplishments in 2025: 

  • Our Keepers of the Earth Fund supported 65 projects in 29 countries on issues related to land defense and autonomy; the transmission of Indigenous knowledge; food sovereignty and Indigenous economies; and the various forms of resistance to mining for the energy transition.
  • Our Indigenous Community Media Fund supported 63 media projects in 29 countries totaling $502,000.
  • We distributed $36,634 in funding to Indigenous partners to fund their advocacy-related work, including safety measure for defenders, community meetings, expenses related to court proceedings, and more.
  • We awarded 63 Fellowships to Indigenous youth to build capacities in Indigenous rights, Indigenous languages, cultures, and Traditional Knowledge. 
  • Our Indigenous Rights Radio program produced 157 programs translated in Spanish, English, and 17 Indigenous languages.

Our work is fueled by supporters like you. Together, we can uplift Indigenous-led solutions, strengthen community power, and advance towards a more just and equitable world. This #GivingTuesday, we invite you to help Indigenize philanthropy by contributing to Indigenous rights, leadership, and community-driven change—for today, tomorrow, and the next seven generations.

Let’s do this together - help us unlock the full match!
