Be A Part of the Story
Directly fund projects that make a real-world impact, from language revitalization to land restoration.
Contribute to initiatives that restore land, preserve languages, and empower Indigenous communities.
If you’re a filmmaker, artist, writer, or creator with a vision, let’s collaborate and amplify stories that need to be told.
Organizations, brands, and institutions who align with our mission can help us scale our impact through strategic partnerships.
Your support is more than a contribution. It is an act of stewardship.
In a world fragmented by extraction and individualism, your support represents something profound – a remembering of our interdependence, a recognition that we thrive or falter together. Each contribution, whether financial or through sharing these stories with others, helps to reweave the fabric of connection that has been torn by colonialism, capitalism, and disconnection from the land.
Every act of generosity a step toward amplifying the voices that must be heard, safeguarding the wisdom that can guide us, and nurturing the relationships that hold us all in balance.
This is your invitation to be part of something greater – to help keep the fire burning, to ensure these stories not only survive but thrive, and to strengthen the sacred connections that weave us all together.
Sit beside us. Tend the fire. Help hold the heart that carries the stories, and the voice that inspires the changes we need. Together, we can create a future where the wisdom of the past illuminates the way forward, where every story lives, and where the fire never goes out.
Now is the time – step into the circle.
