The Native Nonprofit List
The new home of the Native Nonprofit List is LIVE at GiveNative.org right on time for Native Nonprofit Day!
Native Nonprofit Day 2026
May is for Native impact and you’re invited.
Native Nonprofit Day is a nationwide giving and awareness campaign dedicated to uplifting and investing in Native-led nonprofits every year on the third Thursday of May. Every May, individuals, organizations, and foundations come together to celebrate Native leadership, amplify Native voices, and drive meaningful support—culminating in Native Nonprofit Day.
This is more than a moment. It’s a movement.

DISCLAIMER: While we encourage non-Native foundations and non-Native-controlled nonprofits to join us in uplifting Native-led nonprofits throughout the entirety of Native Nonprofit Day and beyond, we request that they refrain from fundraising for non-Native organizations using Native Ways Federation materials. We ask that our materials be used to ethically promote funding equity for Native-controlled nonprofits. We do not condone non-Native nonprofits utilizing our campaign posts and graphics to fundraise for their organizations.
We define “Native-led” and “Native-controlled” nonprofits as organizations with at least 51 percent of the board of directors and leadership team identifying as American Indian, Alaska Native, or Native Hawaiian. We also advocate for Native-led organizations whose programs predominantly serve tribes, Native communities, and peoples in tribal and/or off-reservation communities.
