Two ways to help right away! Colorado Gives Day2024 AND Holiday Food Drive!
Your donation, between now and Colorado Gives Day on December 10th, will be matched dollar for dollar! Help us create ever greater impact in the Native communities we serve!
In direct partnership with our Native relatives, we engage youth and volunteers of all ages as we address conditions of poverty on Native reservations, amplify Indigenous wisdom and create unique opportunities for reconciliation and youth development.
We are a multi-cultural and intergenerational community in which an exchange of courageous conversations and mutual understanding are emphasized, inevitably leading to an organic evolution of friendship and respect across cultures and lines of difference.
OUR VISION:
We envision a future where children are thriving in interconnected and culturally rooted communities.
OUR MISSION: We establish diverse coalitions of partners to alleviate poverty in Native communities, empower youth, create opportunities for reconciliation, and honor Indigenous wisdom.
We work from a model of reciprocity as informed by Indigenous wisdom.
This is why all Tipi Raiser's events, service trips and activities are offered free of charge. We trust that those who join us will receive the gift that is inherent in their experience and that they will give back to the best of their ability - in this way, we can all stay in balance.
"When a society loses the sacred - when everything has a monetary value, the commoditization of human life cannibalizes itself." - Basil Brave Heart
The generosity of our partners and supporters - through donations and grants - makes everything we do possible! We offer our sincere gratitude for any support you can offer. Connect with a Tipi Raiser's staff member to learn other ways to give back!
