About grants for native americans in Washington
Funding for Native American communities comes from a distinctive mix of federal agencies and Native-led foundations. Federal sources include the Administration for Native Americans (ANA) and its Social and Economic Development Strategies (SEDS) program, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the National Endowment for the Humanities, while Native-controlled grantmakers like First Nations Development Institute, the Native Arts and Cultures Foundation, and the Notah Begay III Foundation fund tribes, Native nonprofits, and community projects. National foundations such as the W.K. Kellogg Foundation also maintain dedicated support for Indigenous communities.

Frequently Asked Questions
What grants are available for Native American organizations?
Grants support a wide range of work, including tribal economic development, language and cultural preservation, Native youth programs, food sovereignty, health, and education. Federal programs like ANA's SEDS fund community-driven projects, while Native-led funders such as First Nations Development Institute provide both grants and technical assistance. Many awards are open to federally recognized tribes, Native nonprofits, and in some cases non-federally-recognized Native organizations.
Which foundations and agencies fund Native American causes?
Native-controlled grantmakers like First Nations Development Institute, the Native Arts and Cultures Foundation, and the Notah Begay III Foundation are leaders in the space, alongside national funders such as the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. On the federal side, the Administration for Native Americans, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the National Endowment for the Humanities all run programs open to tribes and Native nonprofits.
Do you have to be a federally recognized tribe to apply?
Not always. Many federal programs prioritize federally recognized tribes, but a number also accept incorporated non-federally-recognized tribes and other Native American nonprofit organizations. Foundation funders are often more flexible and commonly fund 501(c)(3) Native nonprofits, cultural centers, and community groups. Always check each program's eligibility rules before applying.
