The Oak Brook, Illinois-based Rundgren Foundation has granted the American Indian College Fund a $12,000 grant for scholarships for American Indian students attending our nation’s tribal colleges.

Richard B. Williams, President and CEO of the American Indian College Fund said, “We are pleased that the Rundgren Foundation is continuing its support of American Indian students who are pursuing their dreams through a higher education, giving them hope for a better future. Our graduates return to their communities and make a difference in the lives of American Indians, while serving as role models to others that they, too, can achieve success.”

Today, April 22, is the 54th Earth Day since its first celebration, which birthed the modern environmental movement in 1970. It is a day to raise awareness of the damage done to the planet and the need for more sustainable practices in every aspect of life and industry. For Indigenous peoples, the responsibility to care for the earth and the environments that shaped our cultures is one we have carried for millennia. That commitment to the places that are a part of us persists today in the studies and careers many Native people pursue.
