Na’ah Illahee Fund

About

Na’ah Illahee Fund (NIF) is firmly rooted in Indigenous-led philanthropy and strategic action as we advance self-determination, cultural health and regenerative economies. We know that innovative solutions lie in the brilliance of our people, and we work to build the capacity of community leaders to draw upon deep resilience and to realize their dreams. Education and skill sharing, strengths and asset mapping, strategic planning, networking, and resourcing are the components of successful community building. NIF serves as a bridge builder, facilitator and resource partner as we work to catalyze a movement toward positive futures.

Our scope of impact includes urban, rural, island, and reservation-based Indigenous communities throughout the Pacific Northwest region and beyond.
