Based out of the He Sapa (Black Hills) on Oceti Sakowin Territory, NDN Collective builds the collective power of Indigenous Peoples, communities, and Nations to exercise their inherent right to self-determination, while fostering a world that is built on a foundation of justice and equity for all people and Mother Earth. NDN Collective’s 100% Indigenous-led board and staff operates from Indigenous values, ideology and methodology, and works to bring their vision to life through organizing, activism, wealth liberation and rematriation of resources, power-building and narrative change. They aim to dramatically increase philanthropic investment into Indigenous-led organizations, with the goal of giving out $50M per year in grants and to create an Indigenous-led CDFI to move $100M of for-profit investment into projects led by and serving Indigenous communities. They are simultaneously building power and capacity with Indigenous communities to be able to absorb this new influx of capital and advocating for Indigenous rights and policy changes that will enable Indigenous Peoples and communities to thrive.
