How To Give

Every contribution returns wealth to Native communities.

Join Our Circle of Giving

Being good relatives means centering radical kinship, reciprocity, respect, and diversity in all of our relationships. Since 2013, NVR has given over $20 million to more than 600 Native community organizations, in partnership with a constellation of good relatives like you.

In the near future we aim to distribute $10 million in general operating grants annually. In order to do this, we’re building a loyal circle of dedicated relatives who demonstrate their trust in our leadership and their solidarity with Indigenous communities by contributing to our network of grantee partners.

We invite you to join us by making a one-time or monthly gift from the heart. If you are a person who is able and is called to make larger gifts, we welcome you, too. The power of collective action by everyday folks channels abundant drops of donations into mighty rivers of wealth.

Here at NVR, we are committed to being good relatives, too. As a seasoned Native-led intermediary, you can trust NVR to stay rooted in and accountable to the communities we partner with. Additionally, our community-led participatory grantmaking approach not only strengthens Indigenous self-determination and sovereignty, it relieves donors of costly administrative expenses and time-consuming selection processes. Because of our work, our trust-based relationships in Indian Country are deep and wide like the rivers that water our lands. Help keep our riverbanks lush and green with your offering today.

If you are called to give, have an opportunity for aligned funding, or for donations of stock, please contact Eva at eva[at]nativevoicesrising.org.

Voices from Our Circle

Open Horizon supports Native Voices Rising because we believe lasting change happens when Native communities have the resources, relationships, and power to shape their own futures. Native-led organizations are building solutions rooted in culture, community, and lived experience – and they deserve philanthropic partners who trust their leadership, engage with care, and invest for the long term.

D’Lynn Jacobs, Executive Director, Open Horizon

I’ve been giving to Native Voices Rising since 2018 and continue to be impressed at how they raise the bar of what’s possible to invest in Indigenous leaders and build their capacity, while funding their critically under-resourced work.
