TRANSFORM PHILANTHROPY

NDN Collective (NDN) commissioned this report in September 2023 to better understand the extent to which philanthropy to Indigenous communities and Indigenous-led organizations has shifted since NDN’s founding in 2018. This report examines existing barriers and highlights potential opportunities for these groups, as well as trends in giving from 2018 through 2022.

While NDN invests in Indigenous self-determination across Turtle Island which includes Canada and Mexico, this report focuses on the colonial boundaries of the United States given publicly available data sets.
