As part of First Nations’ Food Pantry initiative, our Setting the Table for a Healthy Food System in Indian Country project supports work to build the organizational and program capacity of Tribal food pantries and food banks, thus boosting control, cultural responsiveness, and infrastructure of community food systems.
Through generous funding by General Motors, in a second round of support, First Nations awarded six Native nonprofits and tribal programs with $10,000 grants to support their continued work in food systems. A third round of support in 2023 was also made possible through General Motors, with grants of $15,000 each going to six additional Native organizations.
