This month’s collection helps fund the Na’ah Illahee Fund which supports and promotes the leadership of Indigenous women in the ongoing regeneration of Indigenous communities in the Pacific Northwest. Their work addresses climate and environmental justice, food security and food sovereignty, civic participation, youth leadership, and advancing regenerative economies from a personal to systemic level. The Na’ah Illahee Fund serves as a bridge builder, facilitator, and resource partner as we work to catalyze a movement toward positive futures. We are deeply committed to honoring and revitalizing the wisdom and practices rooted in Indigenous Ways of Knowing and Traditional Ecological Knowledge, ensuring a sustainable and vibrant future for generations to come.
