We Have the Solutions: The Importance of Funding Native-Led Efforts

Native tribes, communities, and people continue to be overlooked and under-resourced at disproportionate levels. In an age of long-overdue, increased Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) conversations in the philanthropic sector, collective giving groups can eliminate barriers and liberate capital to fund Native-led efforts to support thriving communities.

Speakers:
- Carly Bad Heart Bull of Native Ways Federation
- Shannon O'Loughlin of Association on American Indian Affairs
- Raymond Foxworth of Henry Luce Foundation
- Wayne Ducheneaux of Native Governance Center

This session was recorded in May 2023 during the third annual We Give Summit.
