Northwest Area Foundation

Established in 1934, the Northwest Area foundation supports organizations that work with communities to advance justice in its region of eight States and 76 Native Nations. Grantee organizations advance long-overdue change in deep connection with the land they inhabit and communities they serve - Native americans, communities of color, immigrants, refugees, and people in rural areas.the foundation provides funding to grantee organizations, but also connections to other funders, information, and fellow leaders. The foundation follows the lead of grantee organizations to change policies, practices, and beliefs and heal from injustice so that communities can thrive on their own terms.
