Description

Native Voices Rising (NVR) is a project of Common Counsel Foundation and Native Americans in
Philanthropy. NVR provides general operating support grants that are intended to strengthen Native-led
organizations that are building community leadership and power to improve the wellbeing of their
communities. Eligible organizations are rooted in a Native community, led by Native people, hold a
vision for change that improves the lives of Native community members, engage large numbers of
community members to take action together and seek to improve the policies and rules that impact the
community.).

The expected grant amount will be $10,000, but could range between $5,000 to $10,000. CCF is
continually working to raise additional funds for NVR and the number of available grants for the 2019
cycle will depend upon the total funding that is committed by new and existing funding partners.
