The Fund supports community-led efforts that foster students’ Native language and culture, and lead to academic and life success.

Build & Sustain

We build and sustain long term funding through public and private partnerships to improve outcomes for Native American students.

Invest in Students

Investing in every student in the BIE gives students an opportunity to be academically successful, secure in their identity, and healthy.

Raise Awareness

We continue to raise national awareness of the needs of Native American students and commitment to Indigenous students' wellbeing and success.

Growing our community through partnership.

The Fund aims to help identify and support programs, initiatives, and partnerships that will significantly improve outcomes for Native American youth.

We are reimagining how to support Native students.

Part of our mission is to reimagine the current system and garner resources to recreate a learning ecosystem through an Indigenous lens to create environments that foster students’ Native language and culture and lead to academic success, holistic wellbeing, and engaged tribal citizens.
