Share the Investment, Share the Success

Together, we can strengthen Native communities.

Our mission is to strengthen American Indian economies to support healthy Native communities.

We invite you to build a legacy by investing in Native people and vital initiatives that will strengthen American Indian economies.  You can expand and meet your philanthropic goals by supporting Native communities. 

Like you, we believe that every human being has a right to economic security. At First Nations Development Institute, we have been striving for Native Americans’ economic justice to retain and rebuild the economies of American Indian tribes and communities.

We have more than 30 years of a proven track record of economic development in Indian Country.  We are committed to being terrific stewards of funding for Native communities and an engaged grantmaker.  By working together with you, we will ensure that projects are successfully carried forward.

We invite you to join us today in ensuring Native American economic security.
