原住民明日基金第二年拨款168万美元：27家原住民组织分三档受助
美国原住民慈善协会（Native Americans in Philanthropy，NAP）与 Newman's Own Foundation、Novo Nordisk、Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation 及 Bezos Family Foundation 11月10日共同宣布，27家由原住民领导的组织将通过原住民明日基金（Indigenous Tomorrows Fund）合计获得168万美元拨款，受助组织分布在16个州。
该基金今年进入第二年，由原住民青年主导设计并决定资金投向，宗旨是加强原住民社区的福祉、文化延续与自决。2025年的试点共拨款72万美元、资助24家组织，今年的总额较试点翻了一倍还多。
今年的拨款分三档，均为一年期：起步档（Seed）每家25,000美元、共8家；持续档（Sustain）每家65,000美元、共12家；协同档（Synergize）每家100,000美元、共7家，支持推动系统层面改变的协作型组织。
加州有两家组织入选：位于 Larkfield-Wikiup 的 California Indian Museum & Cultural Center 获持续档拨款，位于 Orleans 的 Save California Salmon 获协同档拨款。其他受助者包括夏威夷的多家文化与教育组织、明尼苏达州的 Dakota Wicohan 与 Dream of Wild Health，以及西雅图的 United Indians of All Tribes Foundation 等。
2026年原住民青年拨款人 Anagali Duncan 表示，原住民社区历来通过互惠与集体责任践行慈善，社区自己最清楚繁荣需要什么，问题在于机构是否愿意倾听。NAP 首席执行官 Erik Stegman 表示，今年的受助组织提出的方案扎根于原住民知识、社区优先事項与自决，这正是把资源与决策权交回塑造自身未来的社区手中的样子。
该基金的其他支持方还包括 Annie E. Casey Foundation。NAP 表示，基金今后计划逐年扩大拨款规模，吸引更多伙伴加入。
Indigenous Tomorrows Fund Awards $1.68 Million to 27 Native-Led Organizations in Its Second Year
Native Americans in Philanthropy (NAP), Newman's Own Foundation, Novo Nordisk, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and the Bezos Family Foundation announced on November 10 that 27 Native-led organizations across 16 states will receive a combined $1.68 million through the Indigenous Tomorrows Fund.
Now in its second year, the fund was designed by Indigenous youth leaders, who also determined how the funding would be disbursed to strengthen Indigenous wellbeing, culture and self-determination. The total more than doubles the fund's 2025 pilot, which awarded $720,000 to 24 organizations.
This year's one-year grants come in three tiers: Seed grants of $25,000 to eight emerging and grassroots organizations, Sustain grants of $65,000 to 12 established organizations, and Synergize grants of $100,000 to seven collaboratives advancing systems-level change.
Two California organizations were selected: the California Indian Museum & Cultural Center in Larkfield-Wikiup received a Sustain grant, and Save California Salmon in Orleans received a Synergize grant. Other recipients include cultural and education organizations in Hawaii, Dakota Wicohan and Dream of Wild Health in Minnesota, and the United Indians of All Tribes Foundation in Seattle.
Anagali Duncan, a 2026 Native Youth Grantmaker, said Indigenous communities have long practiced philanthropy through traditions of reciprocity and collective responsibility, and that communities know what they need to thrive. Erik Stegman, CEO of Native Americans in Philanthropy, said this year's recipients are advancing solutions rooted in Indigenous knowledge, community priorities and self-determination.
The fund is also supported by the Annie E. Casey Foundation. NAP said the fund aims to increase grant distributions annually and engage additional partners.
