What is the For The People
(FTP) campaign?
The FTP campaign is designed to provide critical resources directly to Indigenous communities through our existing grantmaking programs and organizing work.
Why now?
Under this authoritarian administration and the largest transfer of wealth to the ultra-rich in U.S. history, we are seeing waves of financial implications across Indigenous Communities and the specific targeting of treaty-obligated tribal funds.
Since NDN Collective’s inception, we have rematriated $110 million to more than 1,100 grantees and 645 organizations. While the redistribution of resources is a powerful step forward, vital support remains out of reach for too many Indigenous Peoples.
Currently, only 0.4% of philanthropic giving goes to Indian Country. Philanthropy must acknowledge not only where their money comes from but also invest in Indigenous Peoples’ to see systemic change.

Why donate to NDN directly?
NDN Collective is a trusted resource for Indigenous communities across Turtle Island and the globe.
We provide our grantees and partners with braided support; we don’t just invest in Indigenous-led solutions, we offer wrap-around support to address each individual’s specific needs and face challenges together head-on.
