💝 There are still 4 sacred hours left to donate for this year's Give to the Max Day 2025 (GTMD)!
This GTMD, we are asking for donations to help AIFC Waaban Ogimaawag (Tomorrow's Leaders) Youth attend the 50th National UNITY (United National Indian Tribal Youth, Inc.) Conference in Oklahoma City, OK, in July 2026.
📷 Check out these pictures from the 2024 Mid-Year UNITY Conference, and what Gina Carlson, AIFC Youth Empowerment Specialist, shares about her experience as a chaperone:
"This conference was very intense [because it was filled] with workshops for our Youth. Our Youth met with other Youth that were from across the country, even as far as Alaska! The Youth attended various workshops among other Youth to talk about different subjects within their communities, such as Environmental, Wellness, Cultural, and Mental Health. They brought all of this knowledge that they learned together and brought what they learned [in the conference] home to better things and a way of life in their community.
The Youth had awesome keynote speakers to get them motivated, such as Christian Parrish AKA “SupaMan”, award-winning actor, Kiowa Gordan, Tomas Amaya, and Charley Hogan AKA Frybread Face from Netflix’s 'Frybread Face and Me'!"
So far, we've raised $1,609 of our $10,000 goal for this fundraiser! If you would love to help AIFC Youth attend the 50th National UNITY Conference, visit https://www.givemn.org/story/HelpAIFCYouth to donate today or share our fundraiser!
Thank you for your consideration and for your generous donations so far! 🪶
