Give Indigenous Youth the chance to take control of the narrative.
Your donation helps us to fulfill the specific needs of our First Nations partners and build projects that create valuable experiences and educational opportunities that support Indigenous youth.
Support young Indigenous people on their journey, uplift them, and help them regain their voices.
All youth have the ability to achieve and succeed when given the opportunity and support. Our stories may differ, but our past is what connects us all.
Leverage your community
to uplift ours
By creating your own community lead fundraising initiative, you can inspire future change makers who will pave the way for generations to come.
Sponsor a Project
By sponsoring a project, you can provide the unique essentials needed to support a First Nation. Depending on the specific needs of the First Nation, this could come in the form of fresh produce, clothing, and other basic necessities. You’re sponsorship could also help facilitate our #WeSeeYou Trips, providing educational and life experiences for Indigenous youth.

Re-gift for those in need
Do you have a non-cash donation you would like to make? Becoming an in-kind donor means you could provide goods, services, time, and expertise that are greatly needed. This could come in the form of physical items your company would like to donate, a service you or your organization could provide without cost, and/ or rent-free space - just to name a few.
