The Support Fund offers up to $1000 for online projects that occur in Canada and are Indigenous Youth-led (ages 13-30). All you need to do is submit a short application for the event/project you want to lead! Projects must take place virtually and can include:
- Art based workshops & gatherings (beading, drumming, painting, weaving, carving, poetry, music, etc.)
- Online concerts, talent shows or performances
- Educational webinars (medicines, mental health, cultural teachings, language, Indigenous youth perspectives, etc.)
- Storytelling, video projects or podcasts
- Care packages
- Online community games, challenges & contests (social media, charades, scavenger hunts, IQ games, Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, jigging, powwow, virtual sports, etc.)

We believe that Indigenous youth deserve to stay connected during this time, and we want to support you to do that.
