About [Edit]
Founded in 1977, the Seventh Generation Fund is the only Native American intermediary foundation and advocacy organization dedicated to promoting and maintaining the uniqueness of Native Peoples and our nations.
SGF`s work has grown in vision and direction over the decades to reach Indigenous community-based projects, from the villages of Alaska to the depths of South America, with a dynamic integrated program of issue advocacy, small grants, technical assistance, management training and leadership development.
About SGF
Our organization derives its name from a precept of the Great Law of the Haudenosaunee [Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy], which requires that chiefs consider the impact of their decisions on the seventh generation. This guiding principle is kept foremost in our front line work with grassroots Native communities in their project planning, development and problem-solving efforts.
Through our work with Indigenous communities spanning the Western Hemisphere, SGF has been very honored to support numerous innovative Native community projects which have raised awareness and gained national and international attention for vital Indigenous peoples` issues.
This support is ongoing and includes rebuilding Native sustainable communities, promoting traditional economies, developing alternative energy, protecting sacred sites and traditional spiritual practices, pressuring the United Nations to recognize the rights of Indigenous peoples, and establishing national and international coalitions and linkages for social justice that span the globe.
SGF provides advocacy, small grants, financial management services and non-profit administration, leadership training and technical support to projects in five primary areas:
Arts and Cultural Expression
Environmental Health and Justice
Indigenous Peoples of the Americas
Sacred Earth
Sustainable Communities
The ongoing work of the Seventh Generation Fund is firmly based on the premise that Native peoples have the answers to the problems we face.
Operating from this framework, all proposed advocacy, grantmaking, and techincal assistance is designed to assist or facilitate Native communities, and organizations in conceptualizing and implementing self-determinative futures.
