Support Our Work on Our Annual Giving Day!
Your support has propelled Cultural Survival forward, shaping our journey and uplifting Indigenous communities around the globe. As we reflect on our past accomplishments and envision the future, will you help us ensure that Cultural Survival's impact continues to grow for another 52 years and beyond?
Help us reach our goal of $20,000 by June 1 to celebrate 52 years of Cultural Survival partnering with Indigenous communities across the world to assert their rights in protecting their lands, territories, and lifeways!
Your support enables us to amplify Indigenous voices, leadership, and grassroots solutions to address the world’s most pressing problems and realize a future that respects and honors Indigenous Peoples.

Indigenous Youth Fellow Spotlight: Youth Fellows Working to Bring Back Their Languages and Cultures
Thanks to your support, Cultural Survival's Indigenous Youth Fellowship Program creates opportunities for Indigenous youth to represent the voices of their communities and bring awareness of local issues through their proposed projects while strengthening their cultural identities and leadership.
“...the idea of this project was once just in our minds and seemed impossible. We truly appreciate that something we envisioned became a reality, and your trust in us contributed to this. We extend our gratitude to Cultural Survival.” – Patricia Dinyando (Khew San)
Patricia Dinyando (Khew San) from Namibia and her team of fellows, Johanna D. Mbamba, Johanna Ngugwe, Kalipa Dickson, Moses Rosinah, and Moses Dingombo, developed the project, “Khwe Yicerengu xi (Khwe Folktales).” Their collective effort aims to create a children’s book of folktales that have been told for generations in their community. The book will promote the Khwedam language, which is not officially recognized or taught in schools, and serve as a culturally responsive teaching resource for the youth of the Khe community and generations to come.
Our work wouldn’t be possible without you - thank you!
