Our Work
Grantmaking
Community Vitality
Community Vitality enhances cultural identity and vitality through individual and collective creative expression and practices, leadership development, and cultural and social justice.
Land, Water, and Climate
Land, Water, and Climate protects Mother Earth through stewardship and traditional knowledge while advancing Indigenous Peoples’ right of Free, Prior and Informed Consent.
Thriving Women
Thriving Women supports Indigenous women-led, community-based projects that empower Native Peoples to address gender violence and restore wellness (individual, family, and community).
Affiliate Program
Affiliates are Native community-based organizations that operate under SGF’s nonprofit status. SGF serves as a fiscal sponsor, allowing a group to direct its efforts towards accomplishing its goals and objectives. We assist with administration, technical training, fiscal management, program oversight, and organizational development.
Training and Technical Support
Providing training and technical support has always been a core component of our overall work. Seventh Generation Fund believes that offering a wide variety of services is key to successfully organizing and sustaining our programs. We conduct over-the-phone, in-person and virtual trainings to build both individual and organizational capacity.
Workshops and Conferences
Seventh Generation Fund sponsors events on program planning, conflict resolution, group dynamics, grant writing, sustainable agricultural practices, and financial management. All community members are encouraged to actively participate in workshops and engage in open discussions.
SGF also provides a variety of services, such as at our Keeping the Homefires Burning gatherings, Affiliate trainings, onsite visits, and training sessions on specific issues. Workshops are often designed in response to requests from our Affiliates and grantees. Training materials created for workshops are provided.
