The most meaningful gift we can give our children, loved ones, friends and neighbors is the commitment to work together to help build a better world. -Kathy Calvin, CEO of the UN Foundation. This week, tribal leaders gather in the nations capital for an important nation-to-nation summit with President Obama. Throughout the week, tribal leaders will unite our voices as we focus on the work ahead - not just for the next 2 years, but for the seven generations. This week as our minds begin to turn to the year ahead - What can you do? The answer is simple - we must unite our efforts once again: ● TOGETHER: We must present a united front as we engage with the Administration and Congress ● TOGETHER: We must build a bright future for our Native youth ● TOGETHER: We must strengthen our cultures and protect our resources ● TOGETHER: We must educate America that we are not mascots ● TOGETHER: We must build a brighter tomorrow - for Indian Country and all Americans Today on Giving Tuesday and throughout the week- we encourage you to consider: 1.
