Native Voices Rising, a collaboration between Native Americans in Philanthropy and Common Counsel Foundation, has received a $7.5 million commitment from Magic Cabinet. This funding will strengthen NVR's ability to support Native-led nonprofits nationwide. Over the next five years, the partnership will enhance community-driven grantmaking approaches that prioritize Native leadership, with a focus on providing flexible funding and addressing critical needs in Native communities. The initiative aims to bridge resource gaps and empower organizations led by and for Native peoples.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government for everyone who cares about transparency in Native issues. Our work bridges the gap left by tribal-controlled media and non-Native, extractive journalism, providing the insights necessary for truly informed decision-making and a better quality of life. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise.

Every gift helps keep the fire burning. A monthly contribution makes the biggest impact. Cancel anytime.
