The FG Foundation provides financial support through three distinct channels: Organizations, Individuals, and the Continuing Their Journey Program. Our goal is to help First Nations and communities address the impacts of the Indian residential school system. We support initiatives like cultural preservation, education, and healing, with tailored eligibility criteria, grant limits, and timelines to meet the diverse needs of First Nations.
