Give A Gift With Meaning; Give With Confidence

2018 American Indian College Fund student ambassadors.

Columnist Nicholas Kristof of The New York Times suggests giving a “gift with meaning” in his annual holiday guide—by donating to the American Indian College Fund to help a Native American get into college.

Here at the College Fund, we know that our students cherish the gift of an education as they work to improve their lives and strengthen their communities.

And when you give to the College Fund, you not only know that your gift makes a difference; you also have the peace of mind knowing you are giving to one of the nation’s top charities meeting the Better Business Bureau’s 20 Charity Standards, earning the Wise Giving Alliance’s Give.org Charity Seal.

Help support Native students and their communities by making a gift to the American Indian College Fund today.

The American Indian College Fund recognizes that the historical and lived experiences of Native people are deeply impacted in many negative ways by the founding of the United States. We also recognize that the protection of inherent and acquired rights as American Indians and Alaska Natives is vital and essential to our self-determination and identities. For that reason, the American Indian College Fund is exploring the meaning of democracy during the United States’ 250th anniversary year. We invite our tribal college students to join us in this exploration.
